The Disc Golf Club at Georgia Tech
2nd Annual Georgia Tech Invitational
Saturday March 19, 2011 at Perkerson Park
Format is two rounds; the first round will be stroke play singles and the second will be alternate shot doubles. Both rounds will be played from the longer blue teepads. The event is open to teams of two to four current college students. Each team's final score will be calculated by adding their two best stroke play scores and their best doubles score. (Examples: A four person team will be able to drop their two worst singles scores and their worst doubles score. A three person team will drop their one worst singles score, and then choose two of the three members to play for the team's sole doubles score. And a two person team will not be able to drop any rounds. So, teams with four players will have an edge, but colleges with a smaller pool of players who may not be able to field four players can still compete.)
Tournament Flyer
2 rounds of 18 holes:
Both rounds will be played from the longer "blue" teepads.

Can Mr. Smith Get to Washington Anymore
Jeff Smith is 29 years old. He's short, scrappy and lisps when he speaks. He has no money, no previous political experience and no support from his family. But Jeff believes in the political process. He believes in the power of ideas to bring people together, and he believes in himself. A white, former African-American studies major, he is a man of surprising contrasts. He gathers a group of young, equally inexperienced idealists, and runs for Congress. Working in a cramped, un-airconditioned office with few resources beyond sheer will and the support of his staff, Smith propels himself into the political arena, attacking voter complacency head on. His innocent exuberance combined with a keen mind and command of policy and statistics overcome his "not ready for primetime" persona. Smith's win would be the triumph of content over form. A modern-day David and Goliath story, his rise from unknown to contender is a testament to the power of one man to make a difference.

Sartor signs letter of intent to play volleyball at ETSU
Thursday, June 26, 2003JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (June 26, 2003) - East Tennessee State head coach Lindsey Devine announced Thursday that Jennifer Sartor has signed a National Letter of Intent to play volleyball for the Buccaneers. Sartor has been twice named the Richmond High School Athlete of the Year, and is a four-time Most Valuable Player of the volleyball team. Recently, she led her club team, the Stouffville Stingrays, to a third place finish at the Canadian nationals. "Jennifer possess a ton of leadership and will play a big role at ETSU," said Devine. "Having already played at such a high level, I believe she understands the demands and pressures associated with playing (NCAA) Division I volleyball." A 6-foot-0 setter and right side hitter, Sartor's club team won the 2001 and 2002 Ontario Regional Championships, and she has played with teams that have taken as high as 15th place at junior nationals. Sartor has also been honored with the Ontario Volleyball Association Award of Excellence. ETSU will open its 2003 schedule versus Campbell at the Virginia Tech Hokie Classic, which will take place Aug. 29-30.

Immediate ban on all guns.
Guns only for military/police.
Bolt/pump/lever action ok, no semi-autos.
Gun laws are fine as they currently stand.
Select-fire weapons should be allowed.
You can have them when you pry them from my cold, dead hands.
I want a tank.
I believe that we should be allowed to own guns. But I do think that there needs to be a way to track private sales. I think there should be a title that changes hands, just like a car. That way if that gun is used in a crime, you have a record that it was sold and you no longer own it. I also think that we need more education on the subject. Just locking everything down isn't right. I mean look how well that has worked with sex ed in schools. You limit what you can teach, kids are going to try it just because they haven't been given the proper education on it. This might be a uneducated opinion, but that is what I believe.
I think the way laws are set now are just fine. Even with "Assault Rifles" available to the public.
If you ask me, the real issue is the background checks and how guns are sold.
These laws need to be tightened up. No selling guns at a gun show anymore unless you run the buyers info through the Feds.
Also, stricter laws for anyone who has needed any psychiatric help in the past and they would need clearance from a Psychiatrist (or two) saying it is safe for them to own a gun.
Basically do a better job of making sure those who shouldn't have a gun (i.e. ex-Cons or crazies) don't have access to them.
*edit: Oh and as an add-on, if you're going to be a sh*tty parent and own a gun, at least lock your sh*t up so your crazy kids don't take it out on others.
- Hall of Fame Safety Rod Woodson on Dan Marino playing in today's NFL:

"Politics is the Art of Looking for Trouble, Finding it Everywhere, Diagnosing it Incorrectly, and Applying the Wrong Remedies"
My position
1. Close the resale loophole. No reason why a person should have to go through a background check buying a gun at a store but not one when buying in the secondary market.
2. Colleges should be gun free zones. Young adults and their faults with guns around? No thanks.
thats about it. Fully automatic guns are already disallowed, and its of course the right call. Semi automatic is iffy, but there are reasons out there for them.
I am a strange animal. I am a pot-smoking, shaggy-haired gun owner. Very pro 2nd amendment. I own a S&W 659 with four 15 round mags. I hope they don't pass a law here in Colorado as stupid as the one they passed in NY.
I often hear the argument "who needs a semi-auto rifle?" But really we live in a society that is all about immersing yourself in **** you don't need. My personal stance is that you may not need high-capacity mags, ARs, semi-autos, autos, etc., but that they should be legal to own and it shouldn't be any of the government's damn business.
And really our government has conducted so many nefarious operations that I would never want them to be the only ones with guns, but I don't want to overthrow anything. I want to defend myself against anything and also go to the range when I get the chance.
Owning a gun isn't a real crime just like smoking weed isn't a real crime. Punish the actual criminals, not us.
And now his fires have gone out.

The Loyola University Maryland's Institute for Child Care Education was developed to offer courses for child care providers to meet the requirements of the Maryland State Department of Education. The courses integrate study of the growth and development of the child with methods and materials that are developmentally appropriate. Students engage in hands-on class activities and dialogue with the instructors, peers and subject matter experts.
The Institute offers two courses of study: Pre-School Child Care and School-Age Child Care. Each course of study consists of two 45-hour segments. After completion each course, the student earns a certificate for 45 hours and 4.5 Continuing Education Units (CEUs.) from Loyola University Maryland.
School Age Child Care I (SACC I) is designed to be followed by SACC II. The two 45-hour courses will provide comprehensive training for professionals interested in working with school-age children in child care settings. After completion of both courses, students will be eligible for State Child Care certification and Continuing Education Units (CEUs). Upon successful completion of SACC I (45 hours), participants will be academically qualified as group leaders in school-age child care centers and be eligible for Level 2 of the Maryland Child Care Credential ($200 bonus).
Courses are offered in the fall, spring, and summer semesters. The dates and times are determined by the instructor.
The cost for each 45-hour segment is $200, plus a $25 registration fee.

Broughton Construction won the $4,662,200 contract to build a new Patuxent River Naval Air Museum and Visitors Center last fall, but the project is now almost four months behind schedule.
St. Mary's County government sent a stop-work order on Dec. 7, 2012, to Broughton Construction and last week sent another letter that could terminate the contract.
In order to guarantee that the work would be completed, Broughton Construction had to purchase performance bonds as required by the federal, state and local governments, which all contributed money to the 15-year-old museum project. The bonds the company purchased were fraudulent, according to county government officials.
A March 20 letter from the St. Mary's County Department of Finance to Broughton Construction stated, "Please be advised that your submissions of replacement bonds from Aim Insurance Trust to replace the fraudulently issued [performance and payment] bonds is not acceptable to the County."
Broughton Construction, with offices in Baltimore and Washington, D.C., was told it had 10 calendar days upon the letter's receipt to either secure acceptable bonds or secure an irrevocable letter of credit, containing a payout clause if a default cannot be remedied.
The construction contract was awarded to Broughton Construction on Sept. 27, 2012, said George Erichsen, director of the St. Mary's County Department of Public Works and Transportation, and a groundbreaking ceremony was held at the museum grounds on Oct. 16.
At that event, Casey Stringer, chief executive officer of Broughton Construction, promised the audience the project would be on time and under budget. Construction was scheduled to take 18 months. An email from The Enterprise to Stringer was not answered by deadline Thursday afternoon.
One county commissioner said this week that Broughton Construction was not the only company to have purchased fraudulent bonds being sold on the market, and other construction projects have been snagged.
Once county government found that Broughton Construction had purchased fraudulent bonds to back the work, the Dec. 7 stop-work order was issued. "It's four months behind," Erichsen said. He said work began on the foundation but wasn't finished at the site of the new museum outside of Patuxent River Naval Air Station's Gate 1.
There were several other bidders on the project last year. Now some of the St. Mary's County commissioners wonder what direction to go with the project. "Should Broughton not correct the deficiency — the county would review the original submissions as an option, or could possibly re-bid," said Randy Burns, procurement manager for the St. Mary's County finance department.
The failure of Broughton Construction to meet county government's requirements within 10 calendar days in the receipt of its letter "will result in a declaration of Termination for Default," the March 20 letter said.
Keith Fairfax has worked on the financial details of the naval air museum project for years and is also a private donor. With all of the delays and revisions of the project over the years, the recent development is just another frustration. "You talk about things being plagued with every damn thing you can think of," he said. "It certainly is a concern to me. It's kind of at a dead stop right now."
The museum association raised $1.5 million in private donations, $1.2 million came from the state, $3.4 million came from the federal government and county government contributed money and executed the procurement process.

Majors And Minors
Answers To Students' FAQ
9. I'm thinking about majoring in philosophy, but I'm not sure what I would do after I graduate. What do philosophy majors do once they graduate?
Philosophy majors pursue a variety of careers just like those who major in other liberal arts areas. In recent years, Hunter Philosophy majors have gone on to careers in education, business, law, medicine, the arts, and a variety of other fields. Philosophy prepares students to do many things and provides them with the thinking and writing skills that prepares them better than many other fields. Philosophy enables students to think critically, solve problems, understand matters from different points of view, and communicate effectively. Department advisors welcome the opportunity to discuss these concerns with students.
10. How can I find out what I still need to do in order to complete my major?
The requirements for the "standard concentration" to the philosophy major [The Standard Major & Minor Concentration] and the "new philosophy, politics, society (PPS) concentration" to the philosophy major [The New Major & Minor Concentration in Philosophy, Politics, & Society] are posted on this website. You may compare your own transcript (available on-line through DIGS) with the requirements specified in the above documents.
You are also strongly encouraged to speak directly with an advisor if you have additional questions. All students are strongly advised to meet with an advisor at least three semesters prior to graduation and then again two semesters prior to expected graduation, specifically to determine whether all departmental requirements for the major and minor have been met. To determine your standing regarding requirements other than the major, visit the Student Services Office to request a degree audit.
11. How can I find out what I need to do to complete my minor?
Hunter College has made the minor optional for students. Students may forego the minor, if they wish. However, if students wish to have a minor, the department in which the student wishes to minor now determines the requirements for the minor. It is no longer the major department that determines the requirements for the minor.
If you are pursuing a minor in philosophy, you must check with the philosophy department to obtain its requirements for the minor. Be sure to speak with an advisor in the philosophy department if and when you have questions regarding the minor.
The requirements for the minor in philosophy in either the standard or the PPS concentration are now posted on the Philosophy Department's website. Click onto The Standard Major & Minor Concentration and scroll down to "MINOR."
12. I need a course to graduate with my Philosophy major but it isn't offered this semester. What can I do?
Fortunately, this situation does not often arise, since the Philosophy Department frequently offers most of it core major requirements on a regular basis. However, it is simply not possible to offer every required course every single semester. Students should be mindful of the required courses they need to graduate (e.g., PHILO 171, PHILO 212, PHILO 215) and should endeavor to complete them prior to their final semester. In the unlikely event that a course has not been available for some time, arrangements for completing the requirement should be made with a department advisor.
13. I failed one (or more) of my philosophy courses. Does it still count toward my major?

Almost daily the news cites economic indices quantifying business confidence. In our experience there is no better predictor of general business confidence than the level of promotional products enquiry. When times are tough promo gear is the first thing dropped from budgets. When the economy begins to grow, improved cash flow encourages the loosening of purse strings and increased stock uptake.
Many companies prefer to control their fate and deny the whims of the market. These companies spend their annual budgets oblivious to the bad news around them. You find the most confident organisations ride out tough times better than those which retreat and look to others for reasons to invest.
On the surface it makes sense to spend less on advertising in tough times. But to make the most of your potential to engage the market in anticipation of an up-turn you need to look outwards to the motivations of those with whom you deal.Be the change you want in the economy. Promotional products provide elevated return on investment because they are a personal gesture. Using branded items for personal engagement as part of a larger awareness strategy gives you a multi-tiered opportunity to influence the future.
150 Years of Generating Sales & Building Relationships
The promotional products industry started in small town USA over 150 years ago. A chaff bag manufacturer at one end of Coshocton Ohio persuaded local businessmen to buy "book bags" complete with printed details of their business. In short notice the idea took off and a rival opened at the other end of town. Competitive pressure led to innovation and economies of scale and a new industry was born. in 2013 the value of promotional merchandise sold in the USA reached a record 22.3 billion dollars. As a percentage of communication budgets, American companies invest almost 5 times more in branded merchandise than their Australian counterparts.
Promotional Products Have a Place in Every Marketing Strategy
An overall strategy which integrates the right promotional products with your overarching message delivery strategy adds the personal touch often missing in modern business communications and permits you to unlock the hidden value of your brand. General advertising activity can create enquiry and one-off sales for your company but long-term profits and the stability of sales through good and bad periods comes from strong business relationships. The act of personal gifting and the consideration which underlies the selection and presentation of the right branded promotional products is a proven way to maximise the long-term effectiveness of your annual marketing spend.
Promotional Products Brisbane
Some markets respond better than others to merchandise based marketing and promotion. In Brisbane, for instance, the simple rural attitude of much of the population ensures that value added promotions are effective in garnering consumer support. It pays to know your market and the moticvations of the individual consumers within it. These days the Queensland market is one of the fastest growing and most readily accessed in the nation. If you;re looking for a way to connect your brand with the people of Australia test marketing through using promotional products in Brisbane is a proven way to test the receptivity of consumers. To learn more about the specific needs of Brisbane consumers and the styles of products which work effectively contact Fresh on 1800 129 999.
Sourcing custom promotional products might sound like a complicated way to proceed, but there are many strong reasons why you should consider this approach to sourcing your promotional collateral. Many large Australian companies and marketing organisations have already developed their own signature lines of branded merchandise using the Fresh Promotions custom design and manufacturing services
A few recent examples of of a custom made promotional products we have worked on for national clients is shown below. In each case, Fresh Promotions took the development project from design brief to manufactured sample within 30 days. Some of the completed custom products were shipped to different countries for use in an international promotions backed by major domestic and international television advertising campaigns. Other items were simply used as staff rewards or to say a simple and cost effective "thank you" to clients. Whatever the objective, budget and planned outcome, the clients which have sourced using the custom production service have all found that the end result was one of the most successful marketing activities in which they had engaged.
Gourmet Garden "Inner Chef" Fridge Tray Promotion
Gourmet Garden is a well know national brand in Australia which is regularly promoting its brand in the media. Their secret process used to preserve herbs in an easily used tube has seen their product gain shelf space and market share around the world.
To support their new national television advertising campaign and encourage consumers to visit their website and subscribe to the weekly recipe newsletter Gourmet Garden came to Fresh to ask our advice on the development and production of a product which would work enhance brand values and encourage incremental sales. Eventually the Gourmet Garden campaign was successfully rolled out across four countries.
American Impressionists Printed Drinkware
The touring exhibition "American Impressionists" was recently in Australia and Fresh Promotions was approached by a major state art gallery to produce a range of mugs and tea cups printed with the headlining works which could be sold to attendees. Obviously reproducing the finest paintings in the collection on ceramics, to the satisfaction of the gallery managers was no easy task, however the final range of coffee mugs and tea cups with saucers was given a big elephant stamp by the arts authorities. The printed coffee mugs are now on sale and the reaction of the public has been to buy them all so another run is already in production. The successful completion of these printed mugs and cups is another example of the quality of the branding available through Fresh Promotional Products.
Colgate Palmolive Custom Flash Drives
Colgate Palmolive is one of world's major marketing organisations and they came to Fresh Promotions looking for a convenient and novel way to transfer pricing files and product information to clients. The 3D moulded flash drive we designed and created has been a huge hit with clients and the plan is to use similarly detailed models of a range of other products to pass information through to Colgate Palmolive's client base. Not only do custom moulded flash drives add value to the data you are handing over, they are also cheap and easy to mail, cost effective and an environmentally friendly alternative to printed catalogues. Only problem for Palmolive is that their customers keep asking for more every time the reps visit.
These custom flash drives are proving to be a popular and high value promotional gift. With a minimum production run of only 300 units and low molding fees it is possible to create a highly targeted promotional idea for perhaps 10% more than buying a generic product. As you can see from the Palmolive bottle sample it is possible to recreate an entire product and make it into a valuable and genuinely useful promotional item. Not only does the scale model reproduction of the product or logo keep it as a tangible reminder of your presence, but by being able to upload data and catalogs onto the flash memory stick your product information and capabilities are always close at hand.
BCU "Scoot" Custom Money Boxes
BCU - is the largest credit union on the East Coast of Australia. Their marketing team contacted us, Interested in a quote and detailed information to produce promotional money boxes in the shape of their new dog mascot character. After initially inquiring about 1,300 units for a planned marketing event, BCU Marketing were impressed with the development work progress and increased their order quantity to 2,000 units.
After final pre-production samples were produced the money boxes were approved for mass production. Feedback from the staff and branches on the sample was so good, BCU again increased quantity to the final production run of 4,150 units.
The final delivery was made on time and "Scoot" the dog has quickly become a well recognised and loved character who will forever be tied to the BCU brand.
Visa Payclick Custom Stress Reliever Shapes
Visas new Payclick system marketing team approached Fresh to develop a product which was cheap and cheerful to promote a new quick pay system for Visa users. After seeing the little monster which had been developed as the program mascot it was an obvious recommendation to take the logo itself into the real world and produce custom stress balls featuring the cheeky little devil.
Who wouldn't love to have that rascally little critter on their desk or peering over the top of their computer monitor. As you can see from the image the final product was a great quality piece of manufacture for the price. As we speak, many thousands of these creatures are stuck to the desks of hard working Visa clients around the nation.
Calloway Golf Legacy Custom Golf Bag Tags and Luggage Tags
Anyone who plays golf knows that Calloway is a premium brand so when they came to us to design a high-end gift to promote the launch of a new range it was only natural we'd recommend our custom manufacture service. Made from premium quality genuine leather and cast metal these custom made golf bag tags were produced in only limited numbers but made a genuine impression with the market. Although they are obviously a very complex design - a custom design which when they first called Calloway didn't even think would be achievable without some manufacturing/engineering guidance. Fresh nailed the final item and client feedback has been as good as it could be - they keep coming back for more.
Jack Daniel's Custom Les Paul Electric Guitars
The electric guitar is one of the iconic products of the 20th century. So much of youth and musical culture is based on the sounds produced by the electric guitar and it makes sense for a marketing organisation to take advantage of the emotional association most people have with the music of their youth or of their favourite musicians and bands. The advantage of using a large scale promotional product like this is that apparent high value of the item and the fact it can work as a display or a piece of point-of-sale advertising in addition to its main role of changing consumer behaviour and enhancing perceptions.
Call Fresh Promotions Now to Discuss Your Custom Merchandise Idea
Using custom designed collateral is a great way to create a unique market image and position for your company and its products. A custom made product which can only be obtained from your company, which highlights the product and service advantages of your organisation has proven over the years to be one of the most cost effective marketing tools available. Of course, it all comes down to sourcing the right product and ensuring quality is maintained.

1. A change I've seen in the forum
2. Thoughts in remembrance of the 6 million (est.) murdered in the Holocaust
In the first, @wraith808 starts the ball rolling by giving focus with the opening post:
...and not necessarily a good one, in my experience/opinion, is the constant derailing (or dovetailing) on topics, especially in the living room area. I've found myself doing the same. It seems that no matter what's posted in the topic, the discussion degenerates into a general discussion of/commenting on anything that comes to mind. It makes notifications of topics less than useful- I'm interested in the subject, not tangential conversations and posting of links to only peripherally related articles. It makes this less a place that things can be discussed in a fruitful and rewarding way (IMO) and more of a schizophrenic melange of ideas on some bizarre stream of consciousness. If some of these discussions took place in real life, I'd either be confused or walk away. And it seems that more and more people that used to contribute are doing so... I'm not sure if that's the reason, or something else.- and this is followed by some quite useful discussion.
Anyone else notice this/have a problem with this? And if so, is there anything we can do to make this less prevalent?
Anyone else notice this/have a problem with this? And if so, is there anything we can do to make this less prevalent?
In the second, aspects of censorship are discussed mixed-in completely off-topic with the original post, risking derailing/hijacking the original topic, but these comments give the idea some focus:
- and this too is followed by some quite useful discussion.
Not censorship per-say, but focus. If this isn't a place to discuss religion and politics, then that's just not the focus, and calling that censorship is IMO cheapening the effect of the word when used if not an outright misuse of the word. There's a big difference between having a set of rules so that people that come to the site know what to expect and censoring posts.
...borderline appropriate for DC...I would be interested in any non-arbitrary definition you might consider for this. It could form a basis for "Living-Room" censorship rules, where we could all know where we stand and thus what we need to conform to - i.e., the rules thus set. You would presumably (?) be the decision-taker on this.

So far, the conversation seems to circle around three points: assault weapons; high-capacity magazines; and more extensive background checks for hopeful gun owners.
The Register asked a number of local law enforcement leaders to weigh in, specifically on these three issues.
Here are the responses on assault rifles. For what the officials said on magazine capacity and background checks, pick up a copy of Friday's Register.
Perkins Police Chief Ken Klamar
Assault Rifles: "I can't say banning them completely would be the answer. It's kind of a knee-jerk reaction. These weapons have been around now for decades and now it's a matter of playing catchup. Who could say that those incidents would have ended differently if they had a pistol or shotgun?"
Vermilion Police Chief Chris Hartung
Assault Rifles: "We tried it in 1994 and I don't think there's any empirical data that showed it worked. There are 300 million guns in the country and it took 200 years to put them there. They're not going away overnight. I could teach you how to build an AR-15 from spare parts in 30 minutes. Talk of banning assault rifles is more political grandstanding than it is an effective response."
Erie County Sheriff Paul Sigsworth
Assault Weapons: "All guns in irresponsible hands can kill people. You can have somebody with a single-shot .22-caliber rifle, and if their mindset is to kill somebody, they're going to kill somebody. The vast majority of gun owners are responsible."
Huron Police Chief Robert Lippert
Assault Rifles:"Personally, I'm not in favor of a total ban on assault rifles."
Ottawa County Sheriff Steve Levorchick
Assault Rifles: "I'm not completely against restrictions on assault rifles. If putting a ban on assault rifles were the one thing that could save the lives of these murder victims, then it needs to be done. But if it's a band-aid or some sort of political move, then it's a bad move."
Norwalk police Chief Dave Light
Assault Rifles:"If I could click my heels together three times and make all the handguns and weapons just disappear, that would be great. The problem is we have millions and millions and millions of guns in our country. It's our society. It's like everything else -- unless they put some thought into it and carefully have some gun experts involved and do it the right way, there are so many loopholes and ways around everything."
Sandusky assistant police Chief John Orzech
Assault Rifles: "I can't see any good that comes out of owning assault rifles. I think (someone) could do just as much damage with the weapons (they) have. As far as handguns and shotguns go, that's what our constitution is founded on. Most people who have guns are responsible."

When asked by her kindergarten teacher what her wish was Friday, Bella Winder, 5, wished her father were home.
Her dad, U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Emerson Winder, had been deployed overseas since July, and Bella knew that it was possible he�d be coming home for Christmas.
What she didn�t know was that when she opened her eyes in class at William B. Wade Elementary School after making her wish, her father would be right beside her.
�Daddy!� Bella exclaimed a few moments after registering that her father was the man kneeling beside her.
The two embraced, and Bella smiled.
A similar scene took place at the same school a few minutes earlier when Winder surprised his son, Brennen, 10.
Brennen�s teacher announced that a special guest had come to visit. When Winder walked in the class, Brennen caught a glimpse, and his mouth dropped open in surprise.
He stood up to greet his father with a hug, took a minute to look at him again and then embraced his dad a little longer.
Winder said prior to surprising his children, he has been able to talk with them via Skype and on the phone during his deployment.
�[To] actually be able to hug them and hold them in my arms. ... Just being able to see them is so exciting,� he said.
Winder said the past several months have been the longest he�s been away from his family.
Winder�s wife, Ginger, not only kept up with everyday activities with her children, but while her husband was away, she handled the family plan to move from their home in Waldorf to a new home in La Plata.
Winder said his wife did an �amazing job� while he was away.
�And she is stunning,� he said.�
Winder said he was very excited to be home with his wife and children and wanted to thank friends, family and community members for their support and help while he was away.
Winder said he will spend his time home hanging out with his family, which Brennen said means playing lots of video games and Bella said means playing games and with Barbie dolls.
Bella said what she likes best about her dad are �tickle fights.�

Colin James Hay (born 29 June 1953) is a Scottish-Australian musician, who made his mark during the 1980s as lead vocalist of the Australian band Men at Work, and later as a solo artist. Regarding his solo career, Hay stated, in 2011: "I feel like itâ[][]s been building for the last fifteen, or so, years that Iâ[][]ve been touring. Itâ[][]s slow and steady. Itâ[][]s been word-of-mouth. People see the show, like it, and tell their friends. It feels very organic." Hay's music has been frequently used by actor and director Zach Braff in his work, subsequently leading to a career rebirth in the mid-2000s. Commenting on his younger fanbase, Hay noted, "Most of them have an idea about Men at Work, but that's the subplot. They picked up on me since Scrubs, they're young enough they never heard of Men at Work. But I've found if people discover you they discover everything about you."

Practice Philosophy
Dr. Leonard Miller is a board-certified plastic surgeon in Boston. His comprehensive approach to plastic surgery centers around achieving natural-looking results with quick recovery times, minimal scarring, and long-lasting effects. Be it surgical or nonsurgical rejuvenation, Dr. Miller works closely with each and every patient to find the ideal treatment solution that will most effectively meet their unique needs and goals.
At the Boston Center for Facial Rejuvenation, Dr. Miller's practice philosophy is comprised of five key elements: establishing and maintaining an informative relationship with the patient; recommending only treatments and procedures with the most potential to yield natural-looking results; employing the latest, most advanced and efficient techniques; enhancing patient comfort and safety throughout the treatment process; and ensuring the overall treatment experience is both positive and rewarding.
Prior to surgery, Dr. Miller and his experienced staff devote themselves to spending time with the patient in order to fully explain details of the procedure, discuss what realistically can be achieved, and help alleviate any anxieties or concerns by answering answering questions. As a proponent of the theory "less is often better," Dr. Miller often discourages extensive surgical intervention and recommends the treatment or procedure he believes will achieve the best result without producing an "overdone" look.
Based on each patient's specific goals, Dr. Miller will take a skilled and careful approach by utilizing the most effective techniques available in an effort to avoid complications and ensure more predictable results. He and his staff will also substitute alternative, often less-invasive procedures - such as fat injections and various laser treatments - whenever possible to help provide the most aesthetically-pleasing outcomes with minimal scarring and less downtime.

En español l You wake up one morning with a fever. Or maybe you have a really bad neck ache. How do you know if a symptom is serious or not? "The things that we doctors are most concerned about are new symptoms that develop quickly, rather than things that develop over a long period of time," says Keith L. Black, M.D., chair of neurosurgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
Subscribe to the AARP Health Newsletter
Another warning sign? That uh-oh feeling that tells you something's not quite right. "You know your body best," says Len Lichtenfeld, M.D., deputy chief medical officer at the American Cancer Society. "When you see or feel something different or just feel 'off,' pay attention; don't dismiss it."
Here are nine symptoms and what they might mean.
1. Sudden Intense Headache
The big worries: If you experience head pain unlike any you've had before, especially if it peaks in seconds to minutes in any part of the head, it could signal a ruptured aneurysm, a blood vessel in your brain that suddenly bursts, requiring immediate attention.
In addition, your doctor will want to rule out three other conditions:
- Cardiac cephalgia: A rare disorder in which reduced blood supply to the heart manifests as a headache and can also cause chest pain and exhaustion with exertion.
- Meningitis: A headache often accompanied by a stiff neck, fever and confusion or other changes in mental status.
- Temporal Arteritis: A rare illness in which a person's immune cells invade the walls of the arteries that carry blood to the head, causing headache, low-grade fever or pain upon speaking or chewing. "The reason temporal arteritis is such a concern is that it can result in the temporary or permanent loss of vision in one or both eyes," says Brian Grosberg, M.D., codirector of the Montefiore Headache Center in the Bronx, New York. Steroids usually take care of the problem if treatment is prompt.
What else it might be: Shingles can cause pain in the forehead before the notorious skin reaction (shingles is a painful flare-up of the herpes zoster virus that lies dormant in anyone who's had chicken pox). Contrary to common belief, sudden severe headaches are unlikely to be a sign of a brain tumor. Rather, research shows that two-thirds of patients diagnosed with a brain tumor experienced tension headaches — dull, achy or pressure-like pain — that steadily worsened over a period of weeks to months.
2. Chest Pain
The big worries: Any intense discomfort, heaviness or pressure — like an elephant sitting on your chest — could spell heart attack. It may be combined with pain radiating down an arm, nausea and vomiting, sweating, and shortness of breath. Women can experience more subtle symptoms, like fatigue, a burning sensation or upper abdominal pain. In any case, call 911. "If it is a heart attack, a delay could cause the heart muscle to be damaged," says Eric Topol, M.D., a cardiologist at the Scripps Clinic in La Jolla, California. If these symptoms occur only during exertion, it could also be angina, which happens when the heart muscle temporarily doesn't get enough blood.
Sudden severe chest or upper-back pain (often described as a ripping sensation) can be caused by a tear in the aorta, known as aortic dissection, which requires immediate attention. Fortunately, this life-threatening condition occurs in only about three out of 100,000 people.
What else it might be: "Perhaps 10 to 20 percent of cases of intense chest pain are due not to heart trouble but to gastrointestinal reflux disease [GERD]," says Topol. Rarely, it could also signal esophageal spasm, an abnormal contraction of the muscles in the esophagus, which carries food from the throat to the stomach. Both conditions can be treated with medications, but it's always wise to go to the ER: "It's a heart attack or angina until proven otherwise," Topol says.
