Evidence of Leopard Predation on Bonobos (Pan paniscus)D'Amour D.E. · Hohmann G. · Fruth B.
aDepartment of Natural Resources Conservation, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Mass., USA; bDepartment of Primatology, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig, Germany
Current models of social organization assume that predation is one of the major forces that promotes group living in diurnal primates. As large body size renders some protection against predators, gregariousness of great apes and other large primate species is usually related to other parameters. The low frequency of observed cases of nonhuman predation on great apes seems to support this assumption. However, recent efforts to study potential predator species have increasingly accumulated direct and indirect evidence of predation by leopards (Panthera pardus) on chimpanzees and gorillas. The following report provides the first evidence of predation by a leopard on bonobos (Pan paniscus).

The future Pope Benedict published a fraudulent text, these people say, to deceive the Faithful. Also, consecrating the whole world didn't somehow include Russia. Strange, or what?

Here Come the Chromebooks, As Google and Intel Cozy-Up On Haswell
timothy posted about a year ago | from the tradeoffs-and-favorites dept.139
MojoKid writes "News from Intel (and Google) today includes an announcement that more Chromebooks are on their way to market packing Intel's Haswell processors. The new chips are designed to consume less power, thus preserving battery life for an all-day charge, while still offering better overall performance. Google notes that there are schools in over 20% of school districts across the country that now use Chromebooks, and with prices for some of the machines dipping as low as $199, deploying fleets of these machines in academia is an attractive option. What's interesting is the alignment between Intel and Google now, which should cause folks in Redmond to smart a bit, as yet another major competitor to the Windows operating system seems to clearly be coming into focus. Intel-Google partners including Acer, ASUS, HP, and Toshiba will be rolling out Chromebooks based on Haswell soon, and they'll collectively be sporting more variety of form factors."

-love the packaging. I really like the roller ball concept. Very easy to apply. Not messy at all!
-gives a nice cooling sensation to the under eye area. Not tingly or annoying. It's a nice cool feeling. Like placing cucumbers on your eyes.
-Unscented as far as I can see.
-Covers under eye circles BEAUTIFULLY!
-Now comes in another color! Before there was only one shade which was a bit too light for me but now theyve come out with a medium skin tone colored one!
-Liquid-y texture. Not dry, not sticky, not chalky. Applies very easily.
-Price was what I expected considering it's like a treatment and concealer in one. I got mine for 10 bucks.
-Easy to find. I've seen it at walmart, target, cvs, walgreens, ulta ect.

Overall, I really did like this product. However there are a few downsides. The coverage is poor and the shade choices are even worse. It definitely does help brighten under the eyes and the metal ball roller really does make my eyes feel more awake! However, I haven't noticed a significant lightening of my under eye circles. I recently ran out of this product and have decided to try a few more concealers but I'm definitely not opposed to repurchasing this in the future!
So after reading the reviews on MUA I decided to give this a whirl and I have to say I love it. I knew when I started using it that it was a maximum concealer so I didn't have unrealistic expectations as to what it would cover. I applied by base as usual, then did my regular MAC concealer, set everything with powder then used this right under my eyes. I loved the effective it gave, made the area brighter and gave everything a soft glow. Also loved the cool feel right under my eyes. I would definitely recommend this but advise that it's an eye treatment not a true concealer.

This is a great product overall. It really helps to brighten around the eyes, conceal a bit, and reduce the look of dark circles without being super thick or heavy like many other concealers. It really cancels out the purpley/blue tones of dark circles, and I even use it around my nose a bit to cancel out some redness as well. The only con is that it's pretty expensive for a drugstore concealer. More expensive than some of the drugstore foundations I purchase. But I still love it enough to repurchase. :)

THE BEST CONCEALER FOR UNDER EYE CIRCLES. I am anemic, and the really dark black/purple large under eye bags/circles are hereditary in my family so I was very unlucky and wound up getting pretty bad/dark under eye circles. I've tried so many concealers and this is a miracle. It covers up my whole problem. It applies easy and stays on all day.

This product is fabulous. A little goes a long way and it instantly brightens my eyes. Great coverage and wear. My only complaint is that it can sometimes accumulate in fine lines - less is more.
This is really good, even though I wouldn´t use this to cover blemishes since it´s quite thin and watery, but that just makes it great for under the eyes and i´ve been on the prowl for a good under the eye concealer. The steel roller is a great bonus!
I have tried countless concealers for under the eyes including drugstore and high end, but nothing compares to this! It is definitely a HG for me, and I have and will continue to keep repurchasing it. For some people who think that the coverage is sheer, my trick is to apply it generously once; I find that one thick layer is better than many thin layers. Also, when it is freshly applied, it can be somewhat difficult to blend; what I do is let it sink into my skin and warm up before touching it. I find that not only does this help with blending, but it helps with coverage as well. This product is amazing, and although it is on the pricey side of DS, one tube lasts me ages!
This is great! It helps with the dark circles and blends well. I've even had luck using this as a light cover up for other areas of the face (especially that red area by my nose). For those who are makeup minimalists, this plus a little powder and mascara and lip gloss make an easy morning.

I have been using this for over 2 years now. It has relatively sheer coverage but I like that, it gives you a more natural look while still diminishing the appearance of dark circles. It's very runny, not a fan of the packaging either. You don't need too much product at all! I simply dab a little on both my eyelid and under the eye and then pat and blend it in using my pinky. My lids naturally become oily as day goes on, leading to creasing, but other than that it's amazing!
This product lasts a long time- I've been using the same tube daily for over 2 years! Will repurchase when I finally run out! Recommended!

TrueCrypt 1.7a: steps followed but USB stick not encrypted
Hi all. I have tried using TrueCrypt 7.1a, which encrypts USB sticks. I have a 2 GB USB stick which didn't get encrypted although I followed every step. I have been trying for more than an hour, even with a different USB stick, but with no success Here are the points which I followed (Sorry for the bombardment of info but please bear with me...)
These are the steps I followed:
*Loaded TrueCrypt.exe and clicked Create volume
*I clicked Next (Create a file container selected)
*Clicked Next (Standard TrueCrypt volume selected)
*Under Volume Location I selected a file (My Volume.tc , which I created in my USB folder)
*Under Encryption Options left it as it is, clicked Next
*My Volume Size I chose 100 MB
*Chose a password under Volume Password, clicked Next
*I formatted my USB
*Once it was done I closed the window
*Then in the TrueCrypt window I clicked Tools-->Traveler Disk Setup
*I chose my drive letter (I)
*I selected Auto-mount TrueCrypt volume
*Under TrueCrypt volume to mount I selected my file, My Volume.tc
*Finally for Mount volume as drive letter, I chose T: (a different drive to my USB)
*Those were the only changes made under TrueCrypt Traveler Disk Setup
*I safely removed my USB and plugged it back in. It auto played and when I opened the folder the files didn't get encrypted. I am really confused
Help would be really appreciated.

Try read through these steps to determine if you missed anything - the procedure is similar for the traveller disk:
TRUECRYPT - Encrypt Data Folders
|My System Specs

Windows 7 Ultimate x64
You created a 100mb encrypted file container. You didn't encrypt the whole disk.
How you have it setup if you open the t drive when its mounted you can place files in it that will be encrypted. Then once you unmount the volume.tc all you will be able to see is the encrypted file container.
Golden great work on the link provided above. Always the highest quality of work.
|My System Specs
|29 Nov 2012
I followed all the steps and all the diagrams of each process and they matched mine until the following:
When I clicked "Favorites", there was no "encrypted H:" to click (on the guide its "Encrypted_Investments H:", but I named my volume "encrypted" and chose H: drive). However my volume, "encrypted" still appeared in the panel (its name was Local disk, not "encrypted").
I added some files to it, and safely removed my USB to test it. I put my USB back in and the volume drive (H was not there any more and I my USB didn't ask for any password. Sigh...
|My System Specs
|29 Nov 2012
It will probably be easier if you post a screen capture image of your USB showing the volume in Windows Explorer, and then also how it appears when you try to mount it in TrueCrypt. Can you do that?
|My System Specs
|29 Nov 2012
This screen shot shows the container (encrypted) I created in my USB drive ( I:/BLING-BLING)
Here I mounted my container (encrypted) to the H: drive (after entering password and selecting file)
As can be seen here there was no link displayed to select my mounted volume as a favorite
Finally here is my mounted container (Local Disk: H). The name of the drive didn't change to "encrypted" although I followed the steps.
No password was asked when accessing this mounted container

Hello! I'm Elizabeth Scott, State Representative, 39th Legislative District. It has been an honor to represent you in the State Legislature and be a voice for you in Olympia since January 2013. I would be honored to serve you for two more years. The 39th LD is home to fiercely independent people, abundant farmland, lush forests, roaring rivers, and snow-capped mountains. Our independent perspective and our resilient communities are now world-renowned as Oso Strong and Darrington "Git'er Done" attitudes inspire others to tackle seemingly impossible tasks with courage and determination.
In my first term in the legislature I was able to pass two bills into law and cosponsor many others that made it into law. I've kept my promise to focus on jobs, schools, and fiscal responsibility within the state Constitutional priorities of public safety, education, and caring for the vulnerable. I voted 'Yes' on bills for those priorities. If a bill was a threat to life, liberty, or property, or if it grew
government, I voted 'No.' Check out the "Issues" pages to read about bills I've passed, sponsored, or cosponsored, my committee work in Olympia, my platform, where I stand on hot topics, and my vision for a better future. I believe in open, accountable government and I look forward to hearing from you via phone or Facebook.
I look forward to hearing your feedback. I respectfully ask for your vote again this August and November and I ask for your help in this campaign! Thank you.

The latest perk: cheap housing
Forget about stock options. The most generous bosses are giving an affordable place to sleep.
April 14, 2004: 2:35 PM EDT
By Sarah Max, CNN/Money staff writer
BEND, Ore. (CNN/Money) - Rosy news about the job market notwithstanding, few employees are counting on hefty raises, big bonuses or stock option awards any time soon.
But, depending on where you live and what you do for a living, you may be privy to a new perk of the job -- housing.
An increasing number of employers are offering subsidized rent, forgivable loans and mortgage deals to employees looking to ditch their marathon commutes and live closer to work.
"Employers are starting to recognize that a shortage of affordable housing affects their bottom line," said Beth Marcus, director in Fannie Mae's community lending center, which has helped about 600 employers launch housing programs and expects at least another 400 employers to roll out similar programs over the next six years.
Indeed, even with historically low interest rates in their favor, homebuyers in many parts of the country have been priced out of the market.
In San Francisco and Boston, for example, median home prices are now $574,000 and $407,000, respectively, according to the National Association of Realtors.
This creates a dilemma for employers hoping to recruit new talent to their high-priced communities. Job candidates, who are loath to downsize their living arrangements, either head for the door after seeing home prices in the area. Or, they accept the job and head for the hills -- commuting to and from more affordable areas.
But long commutes can take a toll on employees, say experts. Not only are workers more likely to miss work and suffer from on-the-job stress, they're more apt to eventually leave the job.
"If we have teachers working in our district but living an hour away that is really inconvenient," said Pamela Steele, communications director for the Northshore School District, which is north of Seattle. Two years ago, the district teamed up with Home Street Bank to give teachers discounts on mortgage origination fees and closing costs if they buy a home in the area.
The payoff: "Shorter commute times ease the strain of after-school activities and give teachers an investment in the well-being of the community," said Steele.
Some strings attached
The most common type of housing assistance, according to Fannie Mae's Marcus, are forgivable loans to be used toward down payments or closing costs. As long as employees stay with the company for a specified period of time, they don't have to pay back the loan. (Since 1991, Fannie Mae has given 2,500 of its employees such loans.)
Allstate Insurance, for example, recently launched a pilot program in which employees buying a house within 15 minutes of one of its Illinois call centers qualify for a forgivable loan of $5,000 as well as matching grants from the state and the county worth an additional $10,000. Employees have to stay five years or pay back the loan at a prorated amount.
Over the past year, St. Rose Dominican Hospital near Las Vegas has helped more than 40 of its hospital staffers buy a home with a $2,500 forgivable loan. The hospital, which also provides employees with reduced rent at three nearby apartment buildings, requires that recipients stay at least three years or pay back a portion of the loan.
"The employee stays and the company saves money over time," said Samantha DeKoven, housing associate with the Metropolitan Planning Council in Chicago, which estimates that for every $50,000 a company gives in down payment assistance, it recoups $100,000 in turnover costs.
Since 2000, the council has recruited 22 employers in the Chicago area among them Allstate, Bank One and the University of Chicago to set up housing assistance programs. "Interest in employer housing assistance has grown exponentially," DeKoven added.
Cheap rent is another popular housing perk.
In 2002, the Santa Clara Unified School District built a 40-unit apartment complex for its teachers, who pay about half the going rent for the area at "Casa del Maestro" (Yes, that's Spanish for teacher's house.)
In Aspen, Lake Tahoe and Vail, some employees of Swift Newspapers, which publishes newspapers in these pricey towns, have the option of renting company-owned condos and apartments at a discount.
"Because we publish community newspapers we want our people to live in those communities," said the company's director of human resources, Debbie Spieker-Martin. She is, however, quick to point out that while the locations may seem glamorous, the accommodations are not.

Indy 5-Ohh! Interview with Erik Hendrix's The Steam Engines of Oz!
- Written by J.M. Hunter on Friday, May 24 2013 and posted in Features
The Indy 5-Ohh! returns with a special look at Erik Hendrix's latest Kickstarter Project focusing on a tale set 100 years in the future. Placed in the world of L. Frank Baum's Oz. Fans an Oz fanatics alike, are about to get a preview of this expansion of Baum's lore. Shall we talk about The Steam Engines of Oz?! Let's!
Every story has a beginning. Author of the World of Oz series L.Frank Baum began this story. What was the inspiration for taking it further and continuing this story? What were the origins of your involvement?
Sean has wanted to do a SteamPunk-infused Oz for well over a year. Several months ago, he approached me about collaborating with him and writing the book. I've always loved the World of Oz and jumped at the chance... I can remember flipping through some tattered hardcovers my sister and I had as kids, reading about the early adventures Baum wrote. We didn't have a full collection, but I recall loving what I did read very much.
For fans and tinkerers alike, Talk to us about the difference between coming up with a concept from your own mind, your own story and working on a story or mythology who's conceptual world was created before hand?
I'm a big world builder. It's a part of the process of writing that I've loved since my old RPG days. After spending a couple of dozen years designing worlds for players to run around in, and running around in worlds created by others, transitioning that knowledge to writing came naturally. When it comes to writing in someone else's sandbox, however, you have certain rules you have to play by. In the case of Oz, Baum put an amazing foundation down of how things are in the world, and it's much darker than people think. The other writers who picked up the baton after he passed away kept the spirit alive. When it comes down to it, we're trying to do the same thing in our own way. The benefit to tossing the book a hundred years in the future, however, is that we can do pretty much anything we want within reason, as long as there is a logical path to take you there. That was part of the fun. You look at the events that happened in Oz's past and think, well, where does that put this character in a hundred years? The amazing thing about Oz is that, based on Oz history, people don't die of old age... In fact, at some point they stop aging! It's rarely discussed, but is one of the little gems of the Baum books I personally latched on to. In a world of Magic AND SteamPunk (a form of technology), how do these things come into conflict?
Is it easier or more difficult in your experience?
Now, is it easier or more difficult to write in someone else's sandbox? I'd say more difficult as long as you want to show respect to the source material. If we threw the rules out, it would have been easier, but the magic of Baum's work is something that HAS TO be retained. It's unfortunate just how many books try and re-invent the wheel, re-telling old stories, rather than trying something new with the challenge of accepting the past as canon.
Before we get to this specific kickstarter effort and your goals please give our readers and potentially new supporters of your work a brief background of works and books you've done already Erik.
I've been writing since I was six... so, over thirty years. Now, I wasn't trying to get published for a long time, rarely even considered it aside from a pipe-dream. The comic side of the story was that I was working on a novel through 2008 and had a ton of ideas mulling in my head that needed to get out. I decided I would try to write comics, since I have been reading them for decades anyway. So, I checked out some sample scripts, and off I went! Over four years later, I've published a nice chunk of work. After self-publishing a couple of things that are currently being rebooted with new artists (Faction and Citizens), I've released SideShows, The Evil Tree, Champions of the Wild Weird West, Deadly Harvest, The Book, The Intrinsic, Zipper Vs Dominatrix: The Slave Trade, some anthology shorts, and a bunch of other things in development aside from The Steam Engines of Oz.
Now the Kickstarter!
What's this one about and what can people expect from your current kickstarter effort?
We are releasing the first arc of The Steam Engines of Oz regardless of how the KickStarter resolves itself... Those books were already in the works. The KickStarter is to put the decision in fans hands if they would like our story to continue beyond the initial story.
What are some of the goals?
Basically, the more we get with the KickStarter, the more we get to do! The funds are to pay for printing incentives, pay the art team, printing, etc... This way, regardless of how the book does in the retail channel, people will get the books, we'll finish them, and fans of SteamPunk, Oz, and our interpretation will get to keep on reading.
What are some of the rewards?
Everything from digital and print copies of books to t-shirts, SteamPunk goggles, original artwork, and more. There are a slew of cool options.
And a couple of the stretch goals if you make it?
The first one is if we hit a goal of $10k, everyone who pledges $75 or more will get a Join the Tin Man's Army shirt I designed... It's pretty fun and I can't wait to wear it around myself. We also have a radio play we'd like to do, motion comics, and more.
Talking about the book itself, who's the creative team? What I've seen so far looks stunning!
How'd you all hook up?
Sean Patrick O'Reilly and I are the creators, plotters of the story and I'm writing the scripts. Yannis Roumboulias is the artist, and Chandran does colors. Amanda, my wife and also Sr Editor at Arcana, is doing the letters (except the first part, which I did myself), and Amanda is also editing.
I've been working with Arcana since late 2009, taking a more and more active role in the company, so my involvement comes from that, plus Sean thinks I'm a good writer, which helps. Yannis and I have been working together for a few years, first on Deadly Harvest and then on to Zipper Vs Dominatrix: the Slave Trade. We'll take any excuse to work together. Chandran came into the picture, because he is the go-to colorist for Arcana... Love his work.
Finally what do you want people to take away from your efforts with this project? When it's finally in their hands what would satisfy you and your team from a creator's stand point?
We just hope people enjoy the story we're trying to tell and see our love of comics, of course, and of Baum's Oz!
Thanks for taking the time to speak with us Erik Hendrix. Where can people find your kickstarter online?
Here's the link ~ http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/arcanastudio/the-steam-engines-of-oz-original-graphic-novel

The Black Panthers were destabilized within a few years of the de Young exhibition. The Nixon administration, with John Mitchell as attorney general, joined with J.

'witchGate '06 {WHERE'S THE MEAT?}
Has anyone else noticed that the sandwitches at 'Witchcraft have gone on a diet? I had the Salami sandwich from the Bryant Park "shack" today for lunch, and found the huge ciabatta filled with one––yes, that's right, one––slice of salami. Yes, it was a regular slice. just under 1mm thick. Radius of about 3in. One piece. For $9, I'm not asking for Stage Deli fillings, but for the love of god, that's just a crime. I've now looked into it and three friends have also confirmed the offenses. Anyone else fall victim to Sandwichgate 2k6?
The sandwiches always looked small to me there, which is why I've never bought one. One I saw reminded me of the finger sandwiches one would see at "teas" made with watercress or cream cheese. I think it's another case of the emperor's new clothes over there.
I love 'wichcraft. But.....2 weeks ago, I ordered their excellent
BLT. I got an LT. ( they comped my next order )
I can't imagine that it was intentional.
I used to be crazy about the pork loin sandwich at 'Wichcraft with the red cabbage and jalapenos, but the last two times I've gotten it, the meat was very fatty (and I noticed that it's no longer listed as "pork loin" on the menu, but simply "pork"). I've stopped ordering it. The tuna and the marinated anchovies, however, seem the same as always.
re: scrittrice
this place is overrated to me, as is the chef
great concept, never was great in execuion or creativity
One opened up downstairs from me on 8th street. Enjoyed the novelty at first but agree that you can do much better for much cheaper. For example, the sandwiches at Despana on Broome are infinitely superior, interesting and cheaper.
Overall I like Wichcraft. I love the fact that you can order online and have it waiting for you any time of day. My favorite sandwiches are the two pork ones and the meatloaf, so far. The goat cheese/avocado had too much lemon and needed something to give it some oomph. The tuna also had too much lemon, not a good balance, when I had it. But I'd still rather eat that than most sandwiches available in midtown. Give it a try Prunefeet. I recommend the slow-roasted pork for your first experience.
re: Peter Cuce
I agree. I also like the pork options and the fontina mushroom and the egg,bacon gorgonzola. But the pork sandwiches are double the price of any half decent cubano to be found in the city which I prefer. I also had the gorgonzola, apple, honey sandwich and chicken avocado from the original Bread on Spring street last night which although the same price as Wichcraft are vastly superior and come with a small salad.
re: guttergourmet
I like cubanos, but I don't know how you can compare them to Wichcraft sandwiches. Everything's different: meat, condiments, bread, flavor.
re: Peter Cuce
roast pork, coppa, fontina, pickle relish pressed in a grill=yuppie cubano. That's my point though. Somehow the flavors don't meld like a real cubano for me.
re: Peter Cuce
Thanks Peter, I may just do that. I too am attracted to the ordering online aspect.
re: Peter Cuce
I actually like the over the top lemony flavor of the tuna, gives it a little edge. It is decent sized.
My favorite is the poached egg and white anchovy sandwich. I've yet to find anything like it. This would be a good sandwich to order online, as it does take a little while to prepare.
Every now and then I have mad cravings for a tuna sandwich and I go straight to 'wichcraft. I actually like the thin slices of lemon.
re: Abbylovi
I like the lemon, just felt it was out of balance the time I had it.
re: Peter Cuce
Forgot to mention that the desserts are very good as well.
I've eaten twice at the 8th Ave/B'way shop and had the chicken salad 'wich - filled to overflowing with chunks of chicken, walnuts, roasted tomatoes, pickled red onions & frisée. Great sandwich for sure.
But the best sandwich in Noho/NYU area? It's Bite - in the little triangle at Bleecker and Lafayette - they have a "Middle Eastern" turkey sandwich on ciabatta - smoked turkey, wild greens and hummus -fantatstic.
i happen to think their roast beef with red cabbage salad is unbelievable. nice hot roast beef and the cabbage is delicious. plus eating outside in bryant park is nice. besides the sandwiches, the cauliflower soup with chili oil (i think) is fantastic but i thought that chicken noodle with bacon was too heavy.
"Has anyone else noticed that the sandwitches at 'Witchcraft have gone on a diet?"
Which is why I only get the fried egg-bagon-gorgonzola-frisee on ciabatta. You can't slice it thin with an egg.
Meat 2k --I stopped into wichcraft the other day and inquired about the meat thing while I picked up a cappucino. The deal is that you can order extra meat at any wichcraft free of charge--- that is right all the extra meat is free---there is never an upcharge and all you have to do is ask
can I have extra pastrami on that sandwich
-can I have some extra turkey or bacon
-I was told that it has always been this way and that there are never charges for modifications to sandwiches so go ahead and ask for that extra meat ---It's on Tom.
Fried Snickers Bar
re: FriedSnickersBar
I appreciate their secret generousity, but, really, who knew to ask before reading this thread? Why don't they just make a sandwich that doesn't look like a tea sandwich and maybe I wouldn't have fled the first time I cased the place and saw what they were putting out.

In Vegas you can bet on anything, including where DeSean Jackson will sign. If the odds are any indication, the Chiefs' shot at signing Jackson are not very good.
Good ole Bovada put out odds on who will sign DeSean. Redskins, Raiders, 49ers and Bills are their favorites. pic.twitter.com/nXBIg1qyOD
— Robert Klemko (@RobertKlemko) March 31, 2014
As you can read, Washington and Oakland and the leaders for Jackson with the 49ers and Bills being the next closest. New York Jets, Seattle Seahawks, New England Patriots, and Carolina Panthers all rank ahead of the Chiefs.
Kansas City's 15/1 odds are not great. One has to think Vegas knows something about KC's line of thinking before posting these odds, so 15/1 would suggest the Chiefs are truly out at the moment. Then again one team listed ahead of the Chiefs has been declared "out" by ESPN's Ed Werder.
Re: @DeseanJackson10: We know Skins interested; expect Panthers, Raiders and Jets involvement. Have been told Saints, Packers, Pats are out

Do you like or agree with the Chiefs odds?

Tennis Elbow Exercises
Tennis elbow exercises are an important part of rehabilitation and can help prevent tennis elbow.
Stretching exercises
The following guidelines are for information purposes only. We recommend seeking professional advice before attempting any rehabilitation. Stretching exercises for tennis elbow should be performed gently and as soon as pain allows. They should be maintained throughout the rehab program and continued even when the injury has healed. The wrist extensor stretch and neural stretch can be performed on your own whilst a partner tennis elbow stretch is affective but requires some assistance.
Wrist extensor stretch
The forearm can be rotated inwards to increase the stretch. The stretch can be held for 20 seconds and repeated up to 5 times.
Play wrist extensors stretch video.
Partner tennis elbow stretch
The arm should be out to the side, and rotated inwards (downwards). The wrist is then flexed (bent) to increase the stretch. This stretch is more easily done with a partner to help. Hold the position for 30 seconds and repeat 5 times. Aim to stretch at least 3 times a day.
Neural stretch
Pain in the elbow may be contributed to by tension in the neck. This neural stretch may be beneficial in helping to release tension, especially in conjunction with sports massage. Hold neural stretches initially for a maximum of 5 seconds and only do so if this is comfortable. If there is any pain or tingling in the arm or hand then stop immediately. Gradually progress the duration of the stretch up to 10 seconds.
Strengthening exercises
Strengthening exercises for tennis elbow should only be performed pain free. It is better to wait a bit longer to introduce strength exercises than to begin them too soon and make the injury worse. If any adverse effects or pain is felt either during, after or the next day then rest some more and take a step back.
Isometric wrist extension
The best way of contracting the muscles isometrically (or statically - no movement) is to get a partner to resist your movement, or use your other hand or an object such as a table to resist movement. Position the arm with the forearm and palm facing downwards and supported if possible. Attempt to extend the wrist by lifting it back as if trying to point the fingers to the ceiling. Maintain the contraction for 5 seconds. Rest and repeat 10-15 times. There should not be any movement at the wrist joint.
Finger extension
Bring all your fingertips together as if making a beak shape. Place a rubber band over your fingers, holding the tips together. Move your fingers away from each other against the resistance of the band. Repeat this 10-20 times.
Dynamic wrist extension
When the above exercises can be completed comfortably without pain then you can move on to dynamic exercises. This may be from 5 days onwards. Do not rush. If the injury becomes painful take a step back. Dynamic exercises can be performed using a light weight (about 1 kg). Move the wrist from flexion to extension. Start with 1 set of 10 repetitions daily and build up gradually up to 3 sets of 20 repetitions.
The same exercise can be performed using a resistance band. Rest your forearm on your knee, pinning one end of the band under your foot. Wrap the other end around your hand. Start with the wrist in a flexed position (pointing down to the floor) and the band pulled taught. Extend your wrist, keeping the forearm still. Slowly return back to the start position and repeat 10-15 times. Gradually increase the number of repetitions you perform.

Management Knowledge
Management knowledge is the collective awareness and experience of applying the management arts in exercising its responsibility
to adhere to applicable laws and regulations, meet customer expectations while economically controlling product quality, and
provide dividends to stockholders. Management weaves together people and business processes that can acquire and utilize process
knowledge, identify and control risks, and envelop the operation in a quality system.
Senior management of a drug manufacturer met offsite to review the state of the business and chart its future course. The
finance, marketing, and sales departments gave presentations. Charts were projected and trends noted and explained. Data were
compared to the previous quarter and year-to-date. The financial picture was less than optimistic, and this management group
was tasked to respond. The company's quality improvement program suggested ways to reduce the cost of goods sold (COGS), accelerate
the new product launch, and reduce associated costs. There was also the perennial challenge of reducing company headcount.
Many of the suggested changes were pushed through and rewarded in order to capture the savings in the next quarter. Cheaper
suppliers along with a progressive approach to getting them on the approved supplier list quickly netted material savings
and a reduction in headcount in the auditing group. Launch quantities of the new product were projected to be ready three
months early as a result of retrofitting existing equipment and using existing validation templates. These and other changes
were greatly facilitated by the use of planned deviations while the quality department caught up with procedure revisions
and paperwork.
The manufacturer had a management process to review trends and to authorize and implement initiatives to respond to business
needs. However, mindful compliance requires that management possess knowledge that enables it to facilitate product and process
integrity and detect and control unwanted variation. To accomplish this requires professionals who can design a quality system
that is an asset to the business. Quality professionals must be able to develop, present, and defend quality system metrics
relevant to the business. They must be diligent and objective guardians of process and quality system changes, requiring data-driven
and risk-assessed changes. And they will first seek to reduce cost by implementing an efficient quality system, eliminating
nonconformance and capturing cost savings, and promoting intolerance for repeated deviations with the same root cause.
There is a shift to a compliance paradigm that is rooted in knowledge of process and risks. Arguably this may represent a
swing to the middle ground between the historically science-based approach to inspections used by the biologics side of FDA
and the more legalistic approach used by the drug side. This does not mean that one approach is right and the other is wrong,
but it does mean momentum is building to grasp the essentials.
Good things happen when we are reminded to focus on the essentials. I say "reminded" because Deming, in 1931, said we need
to continually search for better knowledge about materials, how they behave in manufacture, and how products behave in use.
He proclaimed that economic manufacture requires statistical control of the process and measurements. Deming was a proponent
for process improvement in every feasible way.
This then is a short definition of mindful compliance: where the business of medical product manufacturing and the promulgation
of regulations and guidance find a common ground of scientific and technological operations knowledge.

Handbook Overview 5 4. Supplementary Worksheets. Documentation of the findings of the planning process is important. To help illustrate how key information collected early in the planning process can be documented, four example worksheets have been included in Appendix A: � Worksheet 1: Project Roles and Responsibilities � Worksheet 2: Project Characteristics and Water Resource Effects � Worksheet 3: Summary of Water Resource Inventory Information for Potential Site 1 � Worksheet 4: Summary of Applicable Core Regulatory Requirements 5. Water Resource Issue Fact Sheets. Fact sheets are provided in Appendix B for the following seven individual water resource issue categories: � Fact Sheet 1: Physical Impacts to Wetlands and Other Surface Waters � Fact Sheet 2: Surface Water and Groundwater Quality � Fact Sheet 3: Storm Water Quantity and Floodplains � Fact Sheet 4: Hazardous Wildlife Attractants � Fact Sheet 5: Aquatic Life and Habitat � Fact Sheet 6: Coastal Zones and Barriers � Fact Sheet 7: Wild and Scenic Rivers 6. Overview of the NEPA Process. Appendix C provides an overview of the NEPA process and guidance on coordinating this process with airport development planning and the manage- ment of water resource issues. 1.2.2 Handbook Use The guidance provided in the Handbook is not intended to be a form-fitting procedure for water resource issue management at every airport for every development project; it is intended to provide structure, ideas, tips from the experience of others, and concepts that can be adapted by staff at individual airports of all sizes in ways that fit their organizational needs. Full imple- mentation of the Water Resource Issue Management Program and methods identified in the Handbook--adapted to an individual airport's needs--may be a valuable tool for some facilities. In other cases, airport operators and other stakeholders may simply identify insights from the Handbook for use on specific projects. This section has been developed to provide users with guidance on general use of the Hand- book as they craft their site-specific means of managing water resource issues in development projects. General tips on use of the Handbook are found in the adjacent inset. How to Use the Handbook 1. Review basic elements of recommended approach in Figure 1 and Table 1 (see end of Section 1.2.2). 2. Determine elements of recommended approach that will be used on the project. 3. Use material in Section 2 for guidance in establishing the Water Resource Issue Management Program prior to project planning. 4. Use the worksheets in Appendix A for examples of how to document key findings. 5. Use Fact Sheets in Appendix B to assist in understanding and approaching individual water resource issue categories. 6. Use NEPA guidance in Appendix C to assist in determining the relationship between the project development, compliance with individual regulatory issues, and NEPA compliance.

Guidance on use of the example worksheets found in Appendix A is shown in the correspond- ing inset. The worksheets are intended to provide example tables for how to track key informa- tion on the development project and water resource issues. It is envisioned that airport and project-specific worksheets could be passed along to stakeholders as a means of communicating key issues and facilitating decisionmaking. How to Use Worksheets to Support Project Documentation 1. Review example worksheets in Appendix A. 2. Create site or project-specific template using worksheet structure as basis. 3. Document key information as process progresses on worksheet. 4. Provide worksheets to project stakeholders to aid information exchange. Guidance on the use of the Water Resource Issue Fact Sheets in Appendix B is found in the corresponding inset. The fact sheets in Appendix B are designed to provide information and guidance on specific issues. The level of detail in Appendix B should be useful to anyone seeking an in-depth understanding of particular issues. For those more interested in an overview, impor- tant information from the fact sheets is summarized in Section 1.3.4. How to Use Fact Sheets for Individual Water Resource Issue Categories 1.

Free Design - EXPRESSION
I came across this release during one of my bandcamp journeys and instantly fell in love. I know absolutely nothing about this band/person (pretty sure it's not the 60's sunshine pop band from nyc, ha) other than they're from Osaka, Japan and that this album popped up 2 weeks ago. This is a very, very, good hip hop instrumental album. Out of 17 tracks I only end up skipping 2 and that's not bad at all! Give it a listen and pick it up if you're able to. $5~ or so on bandcamp.
Would I listen again: YES
Would I recommend to a friend: YES
Would I purchase this on vinyl: YES

Felton Armand lay in a hospital bed after suffering a stroke and thought of all the things he never did.
"The bucket list started running down my mind," he said.
He wanted to run a marathon, learn how to ride a motorcycle and jump with a parachute. Instead, he was helpless and bothered by the idea he would be a burden to his family.
The Homewood man was 35 at the time and working as a systems engineer for a start-up software company. He worked late into the night, not stopping until a problem was solved.
"I probably have a type A personality," he said, "a very driven person."
That determination fueled his recovery.
Cementing his resolve was the day a physical therapist wanted Armand to pick up a cup of beans, pour them on a table and put them back in the can, one by one.
"But, I wanted to run a marathon," he said.
A year later, he ran two of them.
Armand was among a group of stroke survivors recognized at Sunday's Chicago White Sox game as part of an American Heart Association initiative called Strike Out Stroke. The goal is to spread awareness about strokes and help people learn the signs.
They include sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body; sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding; sudden trouble seeing; sudden severe headache with no cause; and sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss or balance or coordination.
Gary resident Tammilita Alford, 48, had a stroke in 2005. Her symptoms were spread over a month.
"I had all the signs, but I didn't know it," she said.
She blamed thumb, hand and elbow numbness on her job in information technology, wearing a brace and writing it off as carpal tunnel syndrome. She blamed work on her vision problems, too, and got new glasses. She had her home inspected for a gas leak, because she was light headed and nauseated. She even took a pregnancy test, thinking she had morning sickness.
Unknowingly, she was experiencing mini strokes.
One afternoon, she wasn't feeling well and went to her mother's house. She stepped in the shower but couldn't turn it off. She got dressed and walked into the den. Alford thought she was talking, but she wasn't. Her mother called for an ambulance.
"I could see the fear in her eyes," Alford said.
She was treated for the strokes and made major lifestyle changes. She manages her blood pressure, sought therapy, changed her diet and changed her way of thinking, she said.
"It's got to be by the grace of God that I'm not in some hospital, taking medication," she said.

UAB Blazers at LSU Tigers Game Preview, Live Stream and Prediction
The LSU Tigers have played in some tight basketball games recently as two of their last three games have resulted in two-point wins, one of which was in overtime, and Saturday night's game against the UAB Blazers figures to be another nail-biter.
You can stream the game as the Tigers look to improve to 8-2 with tip set for 4:00 p.m. CT.
The Blazers are rising a five-game winning streak with an average margin of victory of more than 11 points per game, including an impressive 63-59 win over then No. 16 North Carolina Tarheels. The Blazers are a veteran-laden squad, create a number of turnovers and play at a pace that gives a lot of teams fits.
UAB is led by Chard Frazier who leads the team in scoring with 18.6 points per game and assists with five, double the next closest member of the Blazers. Frazier is one of six Blazers to average at least nine points per game with C.J. Washington, Rod Rucker, Fahro Alihodzic, Robert Williams and Jordan Swing providing a complementary offense.
The 6-8 Washington, 6-10 Alihodzic average 7.3 and 7.6 rebounds per game, respectively, but it's the 6-5 Rucker who leads the team in rebounding with 8.5 boards per game as the Blazers claim the top rebounding team in the country with 48.2 per game.
LSU, meanwhile has a big frontcourt that should be able to contend with the Blazers big men and need Jordan Mickey and Johnny O'Bryant III to be at the top of their games. Mickey is coming off a game marred by foul trouble vs. Texas Tech in which he only had five points and six rebounds after being named the SEC freshman of the week earlier in the week.
The two teams average nearly the same amount of points per game as LSU averaged 77.9 to 77.8 for UAB, but LSU has a big advantage in their efficiency of their points. LSU is shooting 46.8 percent from the field while UAB is at 43.6 which could be a reason for their lofty rebounding totals because they're chasing down all the missed shots.
The determining factor in a game I think will go down to the final minutes is how each team fares at the charity stripe where LSU has struggled all season long with a 64.4 percentage from the free throw line. UAB has fared much better shooting 71.2 percent as a team from the line.
Prediction: This is only UAB's second true road game and I think that hurts UAB in this one as Mickey shakes off the poor game from midweek and LSU wins another nail-biter 83-80.
Next: Dec. 28 vs. McNeese State Cowboys (2-8) at 7:00 p.m. CT.

Not currently. My dance course has a 90% attendance requirement and so since I missed so much with health stuff I can't go on with this semester. I repeat first year next year so it means more time in getting myself healthy and then getting my technique even better :)

Facebook's oldest registered user turns 106
106-year-old, Edythe Kirchmaier, is reportedly Facebook's oldest registered user and has no intention of switching to any other social network as of now.
Kirchmaier earned the title of being the site's senior most member last year when friends from the medical aid charity Direct Relief signed her up for an account on her 105th birthday.
According to ABC News, Kirchmaier is also California's oldest licensed driver and the University of Chicago's oldest living graduate.
At first, she couldn't enter her birth year of 1908 when she joined Facebook, a glitch that took the site's engineers one month to fix after verifying her age, as it was something they never had to do before.
Kirchmaier said that she embraces social media because it allows her to check in daily with friends and family, adding that she used her status to raise awareness for volunteerism in general and Direct Relief in particular.
Born into the age of telegraphs and candle stick telephones, Kirchmaier said that she still believes in the power of the pen and every Tuesday, for the past 41 years, she's driven herself to Direct Relief's offices in Santa Barbara to hand-write thank-you letters to the charity's donors.
The report said that Kirchmaier has more than 45,000 friends on her personal Facebook page and the fan page Direct Relief set up for her last year has almost 105,000 likes.
Kirchmaier said that she won't be tweeting, pinning or visiting any other social media sites anytime soon and is sticking with Facebook, the report added.
