Stephanie Seymour
On the morning of Fashion Week's great blizzard, Stephanie Seymour, seen here with Jason Wu, had managed to take her seat in the front row of the designer's fashion show. "My first apartment was a big loft, actually. Keith Richards lived upstairs. And that's why I took the apartment. I had no furniture. I had a mattress on the floor. And, um, we drew all over the walls—I had a bunch of friends who were artists. My landlady wasn't happy about it. We had a little table, a couple of chairs. And then just clothes everywhere."
And her taste for interior design today? "I love to mix in modern art. I love William Morris wallpaper. My loft is more modern, more French '50s. And then my house in Connecticut is a big mix of everything from a Jean-Michel Frank room to a big library, which is all English turn of the century. So I guess I like a little bit of everything."

Chrissy Teigen
While hosting the Resolution Project's Resolve 2012 gala at the Harvard Club, model Chrissy Teigen, seen here with her fiancé, John Legend, recalled her first model apartment. "Two bedrooms with six women in them," she said. "I decided to take the couch, because I didn't want to share a room with somebody. I had the pullout bed and the TV."
And today? "I love darkness. We have an apartment down in SoHo: dark, woody, earthy, with big comfy couches, and a very comfortable open kitchen looking into the living room. It's amazing!

Karlie Kloss
Backstage at Victoria's Secret, Karlie Kloss owned up to the white-box model apartment when she was starting out. "It was white walls, super-boring," she said. And now Kloss plans to start over with her recently purchased two-bedroom in Manhattan, beginning with a 20-foot stretch of closets. "I want to do something really warm and very, very chic, almost like a Parisian apartment," she told AD.

Helena Christensen
At the Cinema Society screening of Seven Psychopaths, Helena Christensen, one of the world's great beauties, said that she began her modeling life sans roommates. "Models tended to stay together, with three girls in one place, but I actually had a tiny apartment for myself from the beginning. It was literally so small you couldn't turn."
And her domestic style today? "I always traveled—since I was very, very young," she said. "And I'm always collecting. I'm a bit of a finder. So my place looks like it is lived in by some tinker person, with lots of objects from all over the world."

Karen Elson
On Fashion's Night Out at the Calvin Klein store on Madison, Karen Elson described her first flat in Manhattan. "I lived on the third floor of a slumlord apartment with [model] Erin O'Connor. It was a dire place with one of the worst landlords in New York. We weren't very good at interiors then, it was very studentlike. I went through a bohemian phase, hanging fabrics on the wall."
And now? "I live in a really beautiful modern house in Nashville, on top of a hill with beautiful views. It's still a little bohemian but Art Deco, much more together, more grown up. I'm working with a designer now, Landy Gardner in Nashville."
Elson is seen here at the CFDA Fashion Awards after party.

Erin O'Connor
At the 80th Anniversary of Chanel's "Bijoux De Diamants" jewelry collection, the Inquisitive Guest ran into Erin O'Connor. I asked for her report on the apartment she shared with Karen Elson. "It was organized chaos, very indicative of our life at the time. We had to be willing nomads. Actually, being home in New York was exotic in and of itself. And it was suitably untidy as you can imagine.
"And now," she continued, "I just moved back to New York. It's like a womb. "Since I'm a '70s child, I grew up in torturous beige and brown, and now it's scandalously colorful . . . unapologetic!"

Patti Hansen
Patti Hansen, who just spent months with her husband, Keith Richards, at their idyllic getaway on Parrot Cay, in Turks and Caicos, said that she didn't know anything about interior design when she started out modeling. "I had designers come in and change my house, and it was very blond when I started," she told AD at the God's Love We Deliver Golden Heart Gala at the sumptuously ornate Cunard Building on lower Broadway.
Today, in Connecticut, Hansen works with a friend named Carol Perry. "It's red, green, gold . . . filled with color, purples," she said. "It's sort of eclectic bohemian, very comfortable."

Magdalena Frackowiak
Backstage at the Marc Jacobs show, famed Polish model Magdalena Frackowiak had on a dark shag wig. "I started out sharing one room," she said. "And I have two apartments now, one in Warsaw that I bought in an old building, and I did that one more traditional; the one in New York is very modern, with contemporary furniture. The style of my furniture? Look at environmentfurniture.com." The Inquisitive Guest did: simple, beautiful, rough-hewn. Thumbs-up.

Erin Heatherton
At the God's Love We Deliver gala, Erin Heatherton described her humble starter apartment. "A closet with a bed inside," she said. "And then a model apartment, and then somewhere else tiny. But I just bought an apartment, and I'm remodeling it. I'm in the process of picking the cabinets and all that stuff with Nate Berkus. He's fabulous."

Angela Lindvall
At the Calvin Klein store on Madison, Angela Lindvall remarked, "I'm not a big shopper, but when it comes to interiors, I have a weakness. It was kind of like the bare minimum, and then you get that first couch, because you're traveling all the time. But the beautiful thing is that 15 years and two kids later, I have a wonderful eclectic mix of interior design from around the world. I love antiques and mixing different cultures together. I fall in love with a chair, and then I say, 'Now I've got to make the rest of the room work with the chair.'"

Cody Horn
At the Golden Heart Gala, Cody Horn, a former model who landed a role in the movie Magic Mike, said she'd never lived in a model apartment, except in Paris. "But I've heard horror stories. In Australia, I had to share a bed with a girl for like six weeks. That was a little intense."
And how does her interior look today? "It hasn't really changed—California girl moves to New York. Woods mixed in with metals. Natural materials."

Trish Goff
AD caught up with Trish Goff, the model turned real estate agent, in the front row at the Anna Sui show. "When I started modeling, all I really wanted to get was a Shabby Chic couch," she recalled. "It was very comfortable, but I ended up giving it to my mother. And I went very quickly to midcentury modern. I now mix midcentury modern with antiques. And I like classic wallpaper and dark colors. I love a dark, dark green on a wall with tons of mirrors on it."
Goff is seen here at an event for Hugo Boss at the Guggenheim Museum.

At Lavo after the Victoria's Secret show, California-born Lindsay Ellingson claimed that when she began modeling, "I had a really huge loft in SoHo with Target and 'shabby chic' furniture. And now I have a brand-new duplex in West Chelsea, and I'm just now redecorating, with real Shabby Chic furniture and mirrored furniture. It's a work in progress," she insisted. "But it's going to be great. . . ."

Backstage at Marc Jacobs was Ruby Jean Wilson, the face of Jacobs's Juergen Teller campaign, who told AD, "First I started out in a tiny apartment with my boyfriend.

At this time indications are snow squalls were a contributing factor to this crash when visibility declined rapidly and drivers slowed rapidly but at different rates thus resulting in the numerous collisions. There were a total of 23 vehicles involved in the crashes on west bound I-70 and 17 vehicles involved in the crashes on east bound I-70.
The investigation of the multiple crashes that occurred at this scene is anticipated to be completed within the next 10 days.

Unfortunately I was quite pressed for time when I wrote my blog entry the other day, so I wasn't able to say everything I wanted to. I have a bit more time today, so I thought I'd write up a few things I didn't get to say then.
Firstly, after using Quassel for a little, I wanted to make the interface a little less crowded. So what I did was to remove some GUI elements like the status bar, and reduce the font size. Here's what Quassel looks like now:

They create the future of our society by forming the health, perspective and opportunities for our families, communities and world.

What matters to them? We asked and Moms answered. Mom+Social will be an extraordinary one-day Summit that culminates The Global Mom Relay. This 60-day online conversation has brought together today's leading global and local voices as part of a unique social media relay to discuss the importance of strengthening the health of mothers and children around the world.
At Mom+Social, we will gather to share the top issues that these women and men shared, and the global conversation that ensued. Six key themes we saw trend during the Global Mom Relay will frame a unique dialogue, in person and online: supporting maternal health, both physical and emotional; empowering and inspiring girls; addressing urgent issues that endanger women globally; ensuring maternal and newborn medical care; building strong communities; and uniting moms for change. Mothers want to address these issues for every family and every child.
Together, the reach of social media and the power of motherhood have the potential to change a generation for good. Moms are on the frontlines of what is possible. That's why they should be at the forefront of the global agenda. That is why you will be part of Mom+Social on May 8.
Mom+Social is a special, one-day gathering focused on motherhood and the role of social media, technology and philanthropy to improve the health of moms and children everywhere. Hundreds of the brightest and most passionate people working to improve child, maternal and reproductive health will gather on May 8, 2013 at 92YTribeca in New York City to share ideas, raise awareness and inspire action.

With Grammy night a week and change away, the Recording Academy has announced a new round of performers and first round of presenters.
Country stars Dierks Bentley and Blake Shelton are among the presenters set to take the stage at the awards show, held Feb. 13 at Los Angeles' Staples Center. Other folks holding envelopes: Norah Jones, Selena Gomez, LL Cool J and Nicki Minaj.
Country Strong star Gwyneth Paltrow is one of the newly announced performers, but she won't be reprising her CMA Awards performance with country star Vince Gill. She's set to share the stage with soul-slinger Cee Lo Green and the Jim Henson Company Puppets for what the Grammys are dubbing "a once-in-a-lifetime performance" (what with the puppets, we'll guess that's accurate enough). Drake and Rihanna are also set to perform, joining previously announced performers Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, Arcade Fire, Eminem, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, B.o.B., Bruno Mars, Janelle Monáe, Muse, Justin Bieber, Usher and Jaden Smith.
The Grammy Awards show will air live on CBS starting at 7 p.m. Central.

Sorry, product information is unavailable at this time.
Drawing from his grandmother's homeopathic practices and teachings, Gabriel DeSantino, CEO and Founder of Gabriel Cosmetics, Inc. has always believed that the sea embodies special healing and revitalizing properties.
As a young child, Gabriel frequented his grandmother's home near the coast of Mexico where he learned the significance of seaweed and kelp. As his curiosity heightened and his passion for healthy living and natural beauty developed, he knew it was his calling to bring these special properties to the forefront and become an advocate for all-natural and organic beauty products.
Gabriel began his beauty empire in 1992, drawing from his grandmother's wisdom to create the vegan and gluten-free Gabriel Skincare line, full of sea-derived ingredients. By 2001 he had launched ZuZu Luxe by Gabriel Cosmetics, an all-natural, vegan and gluten free makeup collection. Gabriel later introduced Clean Kids Naturally to round out his all-natural beauty collection, offering products for every age.
Gabriel Skincare evolved into what is now Gabriel Organics after receiving USDA/Organic certification in 2011. Through consistent research, product development and direct consumer interaction, Gabriel keeps his finger on the pulse of new healthy beauty developments and continues to be one of the leaders in the natural beauty movement.
Inspired by the European spa tradition, the ZuZu Luxe luxury color cosmetics line blends soothing, clean all natural ingredients, such as spring water, herbs and vitamins as well as rare and exotic essential oils with sophisticated, fresh colors designed for women in the know.
Just like the European spa, ZuZu Luxe will make your face look healthy and refreshed, and the 100% natural ingredients will help keep your skin free from breakouts. Certified vegan and gluten free.
A healthy alternative in children's personal care! Germ-busting liquid soap and sweet, calming foaming bath are highly effective, yet gentle. And don't miss their Shampoo and Conditioner, packed with natural ingredients and free of sulfates, parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, artificial colors and gluten. Vegan and cruelty free.
"Zuzu Luxe's Samba has pretty great color payoff and is quite pigmented. It has a nice light and silky texture that made application pretty smooth and not at all chalky and stiff, which is a plus."

"I've talked about this mascara so many times, but it really is the best natural one I've found. It doesn't flake or smudge and it's completely non-irritating. I've worn it for years and I expect I'll continue to buy it for a good while still."

"The Gabriel Color line was designed with the discerning woman in mind who tends to choose more conservative, sophisticated styles. This collection is a delicate and refined vegan, gluten-free cosmetic line made up of natural, earth tones and beautiful color palettes, which ultimately create mistake-proof beauty."

Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke, barred last week by Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., on contraception and religion that featured a shouting match, got her moment in the sun on Thursday at a hearing replete with activists and capped off by a standing ovation.
"Many women in this country are energized about this issue," Fluke told the hearing called by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., on Thursday morning.
"I felt insulted, not for myself, but for the women I wanted to represent, the women whose stories I wanted to convey to the committee and the women who were silenced," Fluke said. "There were not women there who were affected by this policy."
Reporters vastly outnumbered the four clearly friendly members of Congress at the standing-room-only hearing.
"Now, you have not only the Congress listening to you, but you have the country listening to you, and that is a powerful thing," Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., told Fluke.
Activists from reproductive-rights groups wore NARAL Pro-Choice America T-shirts or "BC4ME" stickers emblazoned with pictures of a birth control pill package.
The image of the Committee's first, all-male panel of witnesses made the rounds last week, and became the backdrop for Thursday's event. Rep. Carol Maloney, D-N.Y., brought an oversized photograph of the five men, which members gestured towards repeatedly.
"A picture is worth a million words," Pelosi said, describing the 300,000 comments she'd received in the first 48 hours after the Oversight hearing.
Republicans on the committee said they had rejected Fluke, the Democrats' only proposed witness, because she was unqualified and her name was submitted too late. Issa told committee members that "this hearing is about religious freedom."
Hence the Pelosi call for a recess-week, minority-led hearing on Thursday with only one witness. Fluke has become something of a celebrity since she was kept off last week's panel. She spoke on Wednesday night at an event hosted by the American Association of University Women, and was interviewed on CNN.
The Democrats on the panel repeatedly focused on Issa's comments about Fluke's qualifications. In addition to the question about whether she was "energized"--a reference to Issa's description of Fluke as a woman "who appears to have become energized about this issue," she was also asked if she agreed with Issa's assesment she was unqualified.
"Can you think of what was in his head when he said that?" Maloney asked Fluke about Issa's dismissal of her qualifications. "I know you're qualified. I know you're speaking for tens of millions of women across this country. Can you think of any reason why he would be so adamant?"
"Unfortunately, I think Chairman Issa's head is somewhere I don't want to go," she responded. "They say knowledge is power, and evidently the knowledge of how this regulation will benefit millions of women's lives is very powerful."
Pelosi also tussled with House Republicans over televising the hearing and prevailed—10 cameras were trained on the one-witness hearing on Thursday, including one from C-SPAN, which broadcast the event live.
Democrats clearly see political advantage in the issue and at least one poll supports this. But so do Republicans, who have framed the debate as one about religious liberty, not women's health. The Senate is expected to vote next week on an amendment proposed by Sen. Roy Blunt, R-Mo., that would allow employers to exclude any insurance benefit they deem immoral. In addition to Issa's hearing last week, the House Judiciary Committee is planning its own on "Executive Overreach: The HHS Mandate Versus Religious Liberty" on Tuesday.
In the Arizona presidential debate on Wednesday night, Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum, and Newt Gingrich all characterized the administration's contraception policy as an assault on religious liberty. (Rep. Ron Paul objected to the government's intervention in insurance regulation more broadly.)
Fluke's testimony fell squarely on the women's-health side of the ledger. The former president of Georgetown Law Students for Reproductive Justice described student polling that showed broad support for contraceptive coverage. She also told the stories of two friends who she said had been harmed by the Jesuit university's policy against contraceptive coverage. One 32-year-old student, she said, had lost an ovary to polycystic ovarian syndrome last year after her insurer refused to cover the hormonal birth control pills that kept the disease at bay, and is now experiencing symptoms of early menopause. Another woman, she said, had opted not to seek care of disease screening after a rape, because she assumed all women's sexual health services would not be covered.
"This is the message that not requiring coverage of contraception sends," Fluke said. "A woman's reproductive health care isn't a necessity, isn't a priority."

Was tightrope walk really in the Grand Canyon?
Nik Wallenda's precipitous walk across a 2-inch-wide, 1,400-foot-long rope over a 1,500-foot-deep canyon was death-defyingly brave. No question.

representational / theme
As an adjective, representational is a pretty dry one. Yet representational art, while depicting images easily recognized and related to the real world, offers as much variation as the world itself with the infinite interpretive strategies of the artist layered on top. So maybe it's not so dry after all.
Themes represent basic categories of thought, emotion, or value. While our assignment of themes may at times seem arbitrary or whimsical, they serve to link together artists and movements along non- hierarchial pathways. Follow the themes to look for new disciplines that share qualities with those you already like, or to open up new worlds of Art and Culture.

BlogHer Food '09
I had a lovely Saturday. I attended the first annual BlogHer Food conference, and it was fantastic.
I was actually a bit hesitant to attend, since I don't really consider myself a foodie, and although this is technically a food blog, and even though I've written about food for over a year and have a cookbook coming out (in a few weeks! squee!) I don't actually know that much about food.
And I will never, ever have a zen moment while cutting an onion.
shhh. don't tell anyone.
So I was a bit worried to go. I was worried that it might feel a bit snotty.
I was SO WAY WRONG.
I didn't bring my camera (Adam had it on the soccer field for the girls' game), so I don't have pictures of the lovely ladies I met, but I'd like to link to some extraordinary women (and Sean. Hi, Sean!) who you might or might not already know.
These are all real people who know about food. I had a real conversation with all of them, and guess what? No one was snotty. Yay!
And they all twitter. I've been super hesitant to jump on the twitter bandwagon because I'm terrified of time-suck. But I signed up, so I can keep in touch better with my peeps. I haven't actually tweeted anything yet, though, because I haven't figured it out. I think this is who I am: http://twitter.com/stephanieodea
well. I know WHO I am, but that doesn't mean I know what to do with this here account. I plan to put the kids to bed early and figure it out.
(psst, there is no order to these blogs. just how they happened to pop into my head just now.)

I enjoyed this conference so very much, and if I had a choice between attending the full BlogHer conference or BlogHer Food, I'd choose the smaller focus of the Food. While I always have a complete ball at the full conference, I really liked the smaller feel at Saturday's event.
I get overwhelmed easily.
There has been a bit of buzz throughout the blogosphere about lunch. Lunch was sponsored by Bertolli, and the wine served was from one of my favorite wineries: St. Supery. I was invited to an event Friday night at St. Supery winery, and although I originally RSVPd yes, I chickened out due to 1) being pregnant and 2) not wanting to stay out late (probably had lots to do with number 1!)
Adam and I served St. Supery's Sauvignon Blanc at our wedding, and I routinely give St. Supery as a gift. It's a great wine, a great price, and it's local.
As for the food, I didn't have it, because I ate the gluten free option, which was a fabulous risotto.
Which you can make in the slow cooker!

Corn Risotto
Breakfast Risotto
Thank you to Lisa, Elisa, and Jory for this wonderful event. I'm looking forward to next year!

Love your Blog! The slow cooker has been a great help for those days where I don't want to spend my whole day in the kitchen, which is most!

I just wanted to say THANK YOU! I have 2 crockpots that I never use because everything that comes out of them is not very tasty. I decided to try once again after I stumbled across our blog and every recipe I have tried is fantastic. On my lunch I load it up and I get to come home to a fantastic meal that everyone in my family enjoys. Thanks again!

I "Stumbled" onto your website this afternoon and love it! The recipes sound right up my alley because I think my slow cooker is the best thing ever...why would anyone want to stand over the stove to cook when you can do this in the morning or at lunch time and be done with!!

- gfe--gluten free easily said...
I thought it was a fantastic event, too! As soon as I get over my jet lag, I'll do a post as well. And, I have to admit, I was a tiny bit amused that other people were unhappy with their food choices for once. The gluten free folks are usually the ones who don't get the best choices. This time our freshly made risotto looked quite good to everyone!
Thanks so much for the shout out! The very best part to me was connecting in person with so many (like you), who I'd only known online before. It's really such a great community of folks. :-) I'm sure that BlogHer will listen to input and next year's event will be even better!

You captured so many of my emotions from BlogHer Food - going in and coming out. I, too, was slow getting up with Twitter for the same reasons but after making so many wonderful connections, I have been bit by the bug. It seems like a good network.
Sorry we didn't get to spend more time together but we all have so much to look forward to next year!

We didn't meet at BlogHer Food, oh well! There were so many people!!! A pal on Twitter shared your post on yogurt in the crock pot tonight and now I want your book! Tonight I had tossed in a chicken and vegetables for a lazy version of coq au vin, took a nap (have a bug of some kind) and woke up thinking I must really be sick, I didn't smell anything. Well, of course I forgot to turn on the thing! Sigh.... I'm off to peruse your past posts and plan my fall cooking with you!

Stephanie - it was so nice to meet you! Like I said, the women on the board I run love your site and it was so cool to put a person to a blog name, especially when the person is as charming as you are!

You are so amazing. I'm still unpacking and you've got this posted and more. It was so awesome to meet you in person. I agree with you about liking the smaller venue of BlogHer Food. It was nice to get to meet so many great people. I can't wait for next year. I'd love to have one every 6 months but I'm sure they would go crazy. I was one of the lucky few who had a great lunch. I can't eat gluten or rice so even the gluten free risotto was out. I had an amazing plate of fresh sauteed vegetables. It was great. Hope you make it to east coast soon. I'd love to have you over for a crockpot meal. :-)

It was great to finally meet you in person, especially after our phone calls and gmail live chats...I can't wait to meet up with you again!
I watched you on Good Morning America today and am so proud of you!

I bought two of your books today for birthday gifts. Hoping I get one of my own for my birthday. I have been using your site for a year now. Everyone thinks I am a great cook and that I spend a lot of time on the meals. Thanks!! I just think you are great.
- November 4, 2009 at 7:13 PM
I've spent my morning on-line looking for slow cooker cookbooks - because - ta-da - I want to start cooking for my family and slow cooking seems to be my best option! Nothing has caught my eye until I saw Stephanie's NEW cookbook. But it's only 3 of us, so can anyone tell me if this cookbook will still work for us? We don't mind left-overs but just not tons of them. Hope this isn't too dumb of a question. I am not a cook - just a wannabe one. Thanks

Thank you for your comment! I will try my hardest to answer questions as they come up, but if your question gets buried, you may try me on twitter or facebook.
Happy Slow Cooking!

Asking about symptoms of low testosterone might seem embarrassing. Just talking about it might make you feel like you're light in the manhood department. But if you're wondering about low testosterone, you're far from alone.
Low testosterone becomes more common with age, affecting millions of men in the U.S. Although it may cause no symptoms, low testosterone can also result in poor libido, erectile dysfunction, depression, and loss of energy. These symptoms of low testosterone can masquerade as ordinary aging -- when, in fact, it's a treatable condition.
"Most men don't ask about it," says Karen Herbst, MD, an endocrinologist with the University of California at San Diego. "It would be great if they would." Talking with your doctor is the only way to find out if increasing testosterone levels would help reduce symptoms.
Testosterone levels naturally decline with age. Men lose about 1 percent per year of their testosterone levels after age 40. In middle age and later, levels can dip below the threshold of what's considered normal.
Population studies suggest that 10% to 25% of men over 50 may have low testosterone. When asked about symptoms, though, only about one-half to two-thirds of these men report any symptoms of testosterone deficiency.
And the symptoms are what matters, Herbst tells WebMD. Unless a man has symptoms, Herbst believes that he should not have a testosterone test.
Low Testosterone: Symptoms and Treatment
Low libido and erectile dysfunction are two common symptoms of low testosterone. But other symptoms are often vague and nonspecific. For example, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, depression, and irritability are common in men, and frequently occur with normal testosterone levels.
Low testosterone symptoms can also be insidious. Unlike menopause, when women's estrogen levels abruptly fall to very low levels, "andropause" in men is a slow, steady decline in testosterone over decades. Changes in muscle mass, libido, and mood can be subtle, even unnoticed by a man himself.
Herbst thinks physicians could do more to ask about the symptoms of low testosterone. She adds, "Most of the time, it's the last thing I ask about. 'How's your libido? Are you having any symptoms of ED?'" If a man over 50 mentions problems, a testosterone test is the appropriate next step, Herbst says.
Testosterone replacement therapy can help reduce symptoms. But talking with your doctor about any problems you have can be a tough conversation to start. In one study, 82 percent of men with erectile dysfunction wished their primary doctor had asked them about symptoms earlier. The vast majority of these men said they felt too embarrassed to initiate the discussion about ED themselves.
Andre Araujo, PhD, an epidemiologist focused on testosterone deficiency and treatment patterns, found treatment rates to be surprisingly low in a recent study in Boston. "Only about 12 percent of men with [symptoms of low blood testosterone levels] were receiving testosterone," Araujo says. "We can't say they should have been treated, but the low treatment rate didn't seem due to poor access to care or unwillingness on their part."
Asking About Your Symptoms
There's no magic to asking your doctor about symptoms you're having that might be related to low testosterone, Herbst says. "I think you just say what you feel, and start the conversation that way."
Still, it's not always easy to have a good discussion about sensitive issues in a few minutes of face time with the doctor. You can jump-start the conversation if you organize your thoughts before your visit. Here are a few possible ways WebMD suggests to talk to your doctor about possible symptoms of low testosterone.
For men with problems with energy, concentration, and well-being: "I've been feeling out of sorts -- just not myself. I'm tired and sleepy all the time, and I can't seem to keep my mind on task. I get eight hours of sleep every night but I'm still tired. I'm wondering if something else going on. Do you think I need a testosterone test?"
For men with low libido or erectile dysfunction: "I know I'm not 18 anymore. But it seems like I should have more sex drive than I do. I don't feel interested in sex, and I've had no sex drive for months. I know it bothers my wife, too. When it does happen, there are some problems with having a firm erection. It's pretty embarrassing to talk about, but I want to make sure there's nothing medical causing this."
For men with symptoms of depression: "My family says I'm depressed. I admit that I'm irritable most of the time and can be hard to be around. I don't like that. I'm not lying in bed all day, but my energy is down and I don't feel interested in the things I used to. It's hard to concentrate. All this makes me feel like a bad husband and dad. Can low testosterone cause these symptoms?"
Long-term studies on the risks and benefits of testosterone replacement are years away from providing meaningful answers, Araujo says. Until then, the best approach to possible symptoms of low testosterone is to bring them up with your doctor.
Keep this in mind, too: if you don't have symptoms of low testosterone, it doesn't make any sense to order a testosterone test. Because of potential testosterone side effects, testosterone replacement isn't recommended just for a low level without symptoms since low levels may just be a normal part of aging.
Low Testosterone: Questions for Your Doctor
- Are my symptoms definitely from low testosterone, or could they be caused by some other problem?
- What are the possible benefits of testosterone supplements?
- What are the side effects of testosterone replacement therapy? What are the risks?
- How long would my treatment with testosterone replacement therapy be?
- What kind of lifestyle changes -- like exercise, or diet -- could I try before testosterone treatment?

Yes 2 great references.
I put a list of references a while ago but haven't got the time to really "finalize" it or anything
Since we've been into references lately, here is some of it (there are a few already mentioned... I'll update the list with other entries -- if necessary -- when I'll have more time).
I got many links through this site : A central reference
If one is just trying Git and wants to use the basic Git GUI (which is perfectly functional IMO), this is a good "how to" to just learn the basics + a couple more tricks : An Illustrated Guide to Git on Windows (Start using Git with msysgit)
And then here are my personal favorites :
Pro Git
Git Reference (already mentioned by wraith808)
Git Ready
Git Magic
And then a lot of other useful stuff :
The official tutorial
The official manual
Everyday commands
Cheat Sheet
Git FAQ
Git for Computer Scientists
Git from the bottom up
Lots of screencasts/videos… Here are some interesting URLs with a few fun tricks :
And... Good Comparisons with Mercurial
Git and Mercurial - Compare and Contrast
Mercurial and Git: a technical comparison
P.S. : BTW, I'm using SmartGit a lot these days and I like it more and more.
I'm still used to the "one pane" diff viewer of the basic git GUI though... for some (strange?) reasons I kinda like it. Anybody else?

Practice Philosophy
I have focused my energy and expertise primarily into esthetic surgery. First one must accurately assess the client's goals, effectively communicate back how this could be achieved in the safest and most efficient manner; and what can reasonably be expected for an outcome (and possible alternative approaches, limitations, and potential complications). Sometimes this requires more communication at a later time. If a simpler or non-surgical approach is appropriate, or the surgery premature, the client is so advised. Lastly we never pressure a client to schedule.

Cassettes & Freewheels
Please try broadening your selection by deselecting or clearing the filters on the left.
Install a new cassette and freewheel to keep your gears turning smoothly. Fitting on the rear wheel, cassettes (and the freewheel bodies they are mounted on) typically have between seven and ten cogs, giving a wide range of gear ratios. However, with use the teeth can become worn down, possibly leading to gears jumping and skipping. For mountain bikes, cassettes are traditionally 7-speed, 8-speed, or 9-speed, but are increasingly moving towards 10 cogs in newer systems from Shimano and SRAM. Meanwhile, 8-speed, 9-speed and 10-speed road bike cassettes are available from these manufacturers and also from Campagnolo. We also stock multi-speed freewheels, which tend to be found on budget bikes, and BMX freewheels.

INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Real Estate Commission today agreed to temporarily suspend the licenses of Indy-based realtor David Garden and his company Star Homes, Inc.
On Tuesday, Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller's office reached an agreement with Garden to suspend his license for 90 days which was approved by the board today. Consumer complaints allege Garden, as president of Star Homes doing business as Garden Home Realty, demonstrated a continued misuse of funds including conspiracy to commit mortgage fraud, failure to remit earnest money and license renewal fraud.
"The suspension against Garden helps ensure consumers are protected from questionable acts while the formal complaint against Garden is being considered by the board," said Gabrielle Owens, Deputy Director of the Attorney General's Licensing Enforcement and Homeowner Protection Unit. "Since filing the original licensing complaint, 16 new consumers have come forward alleging they too had been ripped off by Garden. Our office believes it is in the best interest of the public to suspend him from operating until a resolution is determined."
Next, the board will set a hearing date to consider the 30-count licensing complaint filed by the Attorney General's office last year. The licensing board determines the appropriate disciplinary action following the full hearing on the matter.
According to one complaint, a customer paid $1,000 earnest money to Garden Home Realty to place a $23,000 bid on a HUD property located in Indianapolis. The customer later found out that HUD only requires a $500 earnest money payment. The buyer later paid a separate broker $500 earnest deposit and placed a bid on the same property for $21,000 – which he won. The customer never received a refund from Garden.
In another case, a customer paid $1,000 earnest money and made an offer to purchase a commercial property from Garden. The individual's offer was not accepted and his earnest payment was not returned.
An Indianapolis couple signed a lease and paid a $1,000 security deposit on a rental property owned by Garden. According to the petition, the renters were told the home would be remodeled and in "showroom condition" upon move-in, but the property was "infested with roaches" and the carpets "smelled of dog urine and feces." The couple decided not to rent the property, but demands for a refund of the deposit were denied.
According to the filing, Garden renewed his real estate broker's license in 2009 without acknowledging that criminal charges were pending against him. In 2011, Garden renewed his license again and failed to acknowledge he had pled guilty to Operating While Intoxicated (OWI) with a prior OWI.

- Log in. Even if you want to read instead of post, it's helpful because it lets you:
- Change your signature options. You can hide all signatures by choosing "Settings" (top right) then "General Settings" (middle left) and unchecking the box "Show Signatures" (in the "Thread Display Options" area).
- Create an ignore list. I know it may seem unneighborly. But you're here to talk about the Pacers, not argue with someone who's just looking for an argument. Most of the regular users on here make use (at least occasionally) of the "Ignore" feature. Just go to "Settings" -> "Edit Ignore List" and add the names.

Meaning & Origins
Biblical name, borne by the greatest of all the kings of Israel, whose history is recounted with great vividness in the first and second books of Samuel and elsewhere. As a boy he killed the giant Philistine Goliath with his slingshot. As king of Judah, and later of all Israel, he expanded the power of the Israelites and established the security of their kingdom. He was also noted as a poet, many of the Psalms being attributed to him. The Hebrew derivation of the name is uncertain; it is said by some to represent a nursery word meaning 'darling'. It is a very popular Jewish name, but is almost equally common among Gentiles in the English-speaking world. It is particularly common in Wales and Scotland, having been borne by the patron saint of Wales (see Dewi) and by two medieval kings of Scotland.

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip – Thousands of Palestinians were gathering today in Gaza to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Hamas militant group.
Hamas chief Khaled Mashaal was expected to speak at today's rally in Gaza City. Mashaal entered the seaside strip a day earlier after a long exile from Palestinian territory.
Thousands of Hamas supporters, some of them flashing victory signs, were braving the rain to attend the event. Some parents brought children dressed in military uniforms.
The anniversary comes two weeks after the bloodiest round of Israel-Gaza fighting in four years.
Hamas has portrayed itself as the victor of the eight-day conflict because Israel agreed to an Egyptian-brokered truce instead of sending in ground troops, as it initially threatened.
The image of Hamas' long-exiled chief triumphantly walking around the Gaza Strip, flashing victory signs beside Islamic militant leaders Friday, illustrates how the group's defiance of Israel is forcing a change in Palestinian politics.
Buoyed by the rise of fellow Islamists in Egypt, Mashaal and his allies are confronting Israel with the specter of a change in the balance of power between the two rival Palestinian factions – Hamas and the Western-backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah.
Mashaal, 56, who left the West Bank as a child and now leads Hamas from the Gulf state of Qatar, broke into tears Friday as he arrived in the Gaza Strip.
Mashaal's visit would have been unthinkable just a few weeks ago. He would have been an easy target for Israel. Fifteen years ago, Mashaal was nearly assassinated in Jordan by Israeli agents who squirted a deadly poison in his ear, narrowly escaping after the U.S. forced Benjamin Netanyahu, then serving his first term as Israel's prime minister, to provide the antidote.
