Patterson's 23 helps Kentucky regroup against Liberty
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP)—Freshman Patrick Patterson had a career-high 23 points and Kentucky brushed off the rust from a two-week layoff with an 80-54 victory over Liberty Wednesday night.
The Wildcats (2-1), hadn't played since losing to Gardner-Webb Nov. 7 in round two of the 2K Sports College Hoops Classic, and were outscored 14-0 early in that one. This time, Kentucky's shooters were sharper out of the gate, particularly Patterson.
The Wildcats scored 18 of the game's first 22 points, getting baskets from five different players during that stretch. Patterson's dunk provided the biggest spark, and the highly recruited power forward out of West Virginia added two one-handed jams midway through the second half to bury the Flames. He also had a game-high 10 rebounds.
Liberty (2-4) used the outside shot to try to pull back into the game but connected on only one of 15 3-point attempts in the first half. By the time Anthony Smith provided their next two 3-pointers early in the second half, the game was largely out of reach.
Alex McLean led the Flames with 15 points.

It has been several years since I attended classes at what was the "American Buddhist Center," and just this morning I was thinking I need to go and see what is happening with this TBC group. This afternoon I saw your post on Facebook about this Meetup group, so I decided that was my signal to get aquainted.
Meditation, educational
I have been very interested in Buddhism and meditation, in addition to Taoism and Hinduism, for a long time and have recently been thinking that I need to find a place with some like-minded people with whom I can practice.

Siskiyou Daily News

(Yreka, Calif.) — On Tuesday, March 27, California Trout will present the latest installment of its Water Talks series at the Yreka Community Center at 810 North Oregon St. in Yreka from 6 - 8 p.m. This is the first Water Talks to be held in Yreka.
Wargo said her group, the Pacific Forest Trust, uses voluntary conservation easements to achieve landscape-scale watershed management.
"The topics for Water Talks are generated from the community. The talks provide education from a diverse range of perspectives so the audience can form their own opinions," Barr said. "Audience engagement is evident in the quality of questions and discussion at the events and unsolicited constructive feedback from the community on how to improve future talks."

Great tour, good value for money, thoroughly enjoyed.

Great tour. Experience Muir Woods and the Redwood trees in all their glory and listen to one of the woods rangers explain in detail about the Redwoods and how they survive. Sonia was our tour guide and she was fantastic and very professional a totally capable and competent guide and driver. Sausalito is a wonderfully refreshing place seaside resort to visit with all the shops and cafes and restaurants to visit. We experienced about 2-3 hrs of this place with Sonia our guide but was so taken with it we returned another day on the local ferry for another day trip. Great place to visit walk around eat /drink etc.

The Pet Zoom Sonic Trainer may look or seem like just another one of those "as seen on tv" useless or silly gadgets but it's NOT! This product doesn't just work, it works great and it works the first time you use it. I bought it to help me get my dog's attention when I am walking him or trying to get him to learn something new in a distracting environment ( like at the dog park / pond ). I tried it out right away inside the house and not only did I get my dog's attention, but I had the attention of my three cats as well. Depending on how you follow up the sound the Sonic Trainer emits, it can be used for positive reinforcement or as a behavior deterrent. For example, when my dog hears the Sonic Trainer he sits at attention and waits for a command to follow to recieve a treat or praise. My cats however, stop whatever they are doing ( like scratching my furniture ) and scurry from the "scene of the crime". I have even used the Sonic Trainer to stop another dog from it's aggressive approach to my dog and myself. I love this product and would recommend it to anyone who has pets. It is not a painful trainer like a shock collar, but more like a " clicker " on steroids. The Pet Zoom Sonic Trainer is perfect for getting your pet's attention so that you can follow up with a command. Other training products sell for upwards of $50. The Sonic Trainer was less than $12!! That is less than the cost of a bag of dog food! Try this product and not only will you love it, you will love having the dog ( or cat ) of your dreams, who listens when you give a command.
It's the best. I trained my dog with it, he get's complements on he's behavior everyday.. I take it on walks and a dog was running after use i pushed the botton and the dog stopped and ran back home.
It's an inexpensive idem that actually works.. I defiantly recommend this product..
Before I bought I read lots of reviews and decided that it works for some dogs and not for others. And dogs can ignore it. That turned out to be exactly true. Don't expect to trust this device to deter dog attacks. Don't expect to have a perfect training tool either. My dog DOES notice it, DOESN'T much care, but DOES do better when this is added to other behavior molding methods. Your mileage WILL vary. Small investment worth trying.
We have 3 puppies to to try to control. Working Great on house Training....
My maltese puppy has a horrible habit of snitching things like my insulin syringe before I can inject it and any paper towel or tissue she sees lying around, not ot mention pens or markers, crayons, etc because as a teacher they are plentiful. When I click this sonic trainer she immediately stops and i tell he r "No or Stop" and she is learning not to snitch things. She has a habit of talking and barking when I try to go to sleep at night, especially if she has had a nap during the day, so I click the sonic trainer and she immediately lays down and is quiet. It is a wonderful product and does exactly as the advertisement says.
This product is worth the $11.88 I paid for it. It is better than the "Bark Off" because you control it. We have a yellow lab who likes to bark. It has helped deter his barking, but if he is in a playful mood, it triggers the barking more. It's a great product if you use it wisely and don't over do it.
turns out our dog's hearing not so good.....no response to signal....however, our daughter's dog responded to it, but it did not stop his barking
I bought this for my golden retriever, who jumps up on people and the first time we used it, he immediately stopped jumping! Now all I have to do is bring it out and show it to him and he won't jump up! This was well worth the money!
I got this product because i didn't want to spend to much money that i was unsure about but I am pleasantly surprised that it works. I have a dog that barks and tries to eat people when you come to my home... lol one touch and he's stops dead in his tracks...
My pitbull-mix dog is a hyper dog who, despite going to obedience classes, did not walk/heel well AT ALL on walks. She pulled SO badly that I actually got bruises and leash burn from her pulling. We tried every type of training collar. We even tried an electric shock collar. After all of this, she still had not learned what she was supposed to do on walks. Keep in mind she is very smart. She knows lots of other commands and obeys them very well (sit, stay, come, wait, speak, etc).
I ordered this remote thinking "this will probably never work, but I'll try anything at this point". Within 10 minutes of training using this remote she got it. We would walk with her and as soon as she pulled at all we would say "heel", if she continued to pull we said "no" and pressed the button at the same time so she would associate the unpleasant noise with the word "no". After about 10 minutes of repeating this process if she pulled we said "no" and she stopped pulling. AMAZING! After another 10 minutes of training she didn't pull anymore. HOLY COW!!! It's like having a new dog. I'M SO GLAD I ORDERED THIS PRODUCT!!
One thing to note, it seemed to work much better from close up and not very well from 20 feet away. From the 20 feet distance she just sort of looked at me like "huh?" and tilted her head. It didn't seem to get her attention enough to make her obey.
We were careful to make sure she didn't "notice" the remote so she didn't associate the training with the remote but rather our command words.
All in all, I am SO glad I invested the money to buy this product!!
it would have been a good product but my dog got vey mean and attacked me when i tryed to use it
My son's two dogs came to visit for three weeks and one of them whined the first few days until I began using the Pet Zoom. At first touch (and it only takes a small push not an extended hold) he stopped whining. All the dogs (mine included) were outside barking at the yard man next door. I called them and to no avail. Punched the Pet Zoom and the dogs zoomed into the house. When my son returned to pick up the dogs he was amazed. I had actually purchased this one to give to him for use in the future.
Please don't waste your money on this training aid! Cons: The cover for the battery does not stay
The dog thinks it is a toy and tries to
sniff it when in use
Pros: Pretty blue case, if that means anything
A friend of mine ranted and raved about this product. I thought there was hope of sanity around the corner only to find out that it has little to no affect on my dog.
I bought this for my Siberian Husky. The only response I get from her, is her ears will perk up.
She responds better with me clapping my hands and telling her firmly NO!
I was not very happy with this product at all!!
Save your money, or spend it on a treat for your precious pet!!
This device claims to be audible to cats. If that's true, both of my cats must be totally deaf because they don't respond to it at all. And neither does my neighbor's dog.
I hoped this would stop the cats from scratching, getting into trouble etc. but it does not work at all. Very disappointed.
Bought this product to use on my siberian husky. Does not work in any way. tried it inside and outside. Does not respond at all to this product. Tried it on other dogs that is running loose into our yard doesn't work on them either.
This really works. I say my command use the pet zoom and they pay attention. No barking. All I have to do now is show them the blue box. Thanks.
I am very pleased with this product. It really worked. The continually barking neighbor's dog, was quieted after just 3 uses. Now all I have to do is show it to her.

Does Anybody Here Perform Breast REMOVAL Surgery (FTM)?
Doctor Answers 10
Top Surgery
The 2 major methods are double incision mastectomy with nipple grafting and keyhole.
It depends on the size of your breasts as to which method would be best for you and the ability to maintain nipple sensation
The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.
Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.
best of luck!

FTM Top Surgery
Thanks for the post. Although many plastic surgeons perform breast surgery, not many plastic surgeons perform FTM top surgery routinely. This surgery is not an extreme breast reduction. There are certain attributes of a male chest that make it look masculine. That is the goal of FTM Top surgery, not just to remove the breasts, but to make the chest look more masculine.

Yes, Female to Male Chest Surgery - Bay Area Aesthetic Surgery
Yes, I perform breast removal surgery. In some instances female to male chest surgery can be performed with retention of nipple sensation. Other instances a free nipple graft needs to be used. I will be more than happy to assist you to gain an aesthetic identity.
Web reference: http://www.bayareaaestheticsurgery.com/
Yes, The Center for Cosmetic Surgery in Denver does FTM "top surgery"/chest masculinization
FTM "top surgery"/chest masculinization (which does not quite count as a mastectomy, in that 10-20% of breast tissue is left behind) can be done via a technique of leaving the nipple attached (rather than grafting it), so that some sensation is retained. It is a very safe and highly effective surgery that has been continued to be refined over the years, and has treated trans-men from all over the country (as well as few from overseas).

Membrane Centre for Energy-Efficient Technologies Officially Opened
Membrane systems are decisive for the development of new energy-efficient technologies as part of the transformation of the German energy sector. Membranes can separate climate-damaging greenhouse gases from flue gases much more efficiently than conventional methods and they also form the basis for novel fuel cells and batteries. The new membrane centre opened today at Forschungszentrum Jülich by State Secretary for Research Thomas Rachel, Member of the German Bundestag, will provide new impetus for research in this field. The facility, costing a total of € 17.2 million, received funding of € 15.5 million from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research.

New special steel for the "Energiewende"
Scientists from Jülich are awarded the Charles Hatchett Award for their research on steel.
Also conventional power plants face the consequences of the "Energiewende". Since renewables are a volatile energy source conventional power plants have to be shut down and started up frequently. Scientists from Jülich developed an improved steel that withstands the frequent changes of load in steam plants much better. The so called HiperFer (High Performance Ferritic Steels) is more resilient and less prone to corrosion than currently available alloys.

I love these shoes. They appear so good and also the fit is ideal. The very first time I wore them I became asked Louboutin? Yes they do look similar to the ones generated by Christian Louboutin they are less costly. They are well made shoes and can last me a long time which is good because these are my personal favorite pair of shoes right now. We have had so many compliments when I wear these shoes how could I not love them. I have had many pairs of shoes from Onlymaker and very happy with all among these but these are the greatest so far. I will continue to buy my brand name knock offs from Onlymaker and keep getting the compliments.

Final 'Monsters University' Trailer Features a Baby Mike Wazowski (Video)
Pixar's prequel hits theaters on June 21.
We knew that Monsters University would take us back in time to meet a younger Mike Wazowski (voiced by Billy Crystal) and James P. Sullivan (voiced by John Goodman), but assumed that we would just be seeing our favorite monsters as they navigated their way through college.
But the final trailer for the Disney and Pixar film gives us a peek at a teeny, tiny toddler Wazowski, who took a tour of the scare factory and discovered his ambitions to become a professional scarer.
PHOTOS: From 'Toy Story' to 'Brave': Your Essential Guide to Pixar's Movies
It turns out that the road to greatness isn't so easy for Wazowski, who has trouble in college, and butts heads with his roommate, Sully, who comes from a family of success.
The prequel to Monsters, Inc. is directed by Dan Scanlon, and features the voices of Steve Buscemi, Nathan Fillion, Helen Mirren, John Krasinski and Aubrey Plaza.
Monsters University opens in theaters on June 21.

AFTER you have worn them at the correct level once and TR'd
Bear with me
On the eve of U20 and the dawn of the Epic TR Era I find myself pondering and planning what Epic past life bonuses I want for each of my stable of Top Tier Toons and I just realised that after many posts on many TR subjects the biggest elephant in the room has not been addressed.
Folks have been talking about the pain of grinding Karma for off destiny EDs, the sheer level of Experience actually needed to grind out 9 PLs in each Karmic Sphere and the underwhelming bonuses you actually get after it all.
But what about equipment considerations? When max level 25 came in there was a gradual move and replacement of equipment as you went up through the levels. Then max level 28 came and once again your gear set up changed yet again.
Now we have the opportunity to go back to lvl 20 and go through the experience of levelling from 20 to 28 multiple times.
I for one will find it a pain to remember what gear I wore at 20, then 23, then 25, 26 , 28 etc. A lot of the random lower 20's gear I have discarded or moved to another toon as I have gathered better and better stuff.
Think of all the augment slot twinking you have carried out!!!
When you TR to 20, if you remain in a good destiny sphere your EDs will be fine but your equipment will be a mess!
Ok some slots and items are just convenience but I for one will find this a nightmare.
Can we get some sort of concession about using ML20-28 items at level 20 after an Epic TR if you have worn them already prior to your TR?
I know its way past getting this for U20 but a patch at some point?
It is going to be such a nightmare the first time I TR each toon and I am thinking many players will be in the same boat

EAGAN, Minn., May 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota (Blue Cross) was one of only 52 companies nationally to be recognized by the National Business Group on Health on May 12 for its efforts to promote and improve a healthier working environment as part of the Best Employers for Healthy Lifestyles awards. Blue Cross was the only health plan in Minnesota to receive the award.
The National Business Group on Health, a national nonprofit, honored and rewarded employers that offer programs to improve their worker's health, productivity and quality of life. Blue Cross was recognized in the gold category for creating cultural and environmental changes that support employees who have made a commitment to long-term behavior changes. The other Minnesota health care companies to be recognized in the gold category were General Mills and Mayo Clinic.
"At Blue Cross, we are committed to helping our employees live life well and enjoy active, healthy lifestyles," Roger Kleppe, senior vice president, human resources and facilities, said. "It's a win-win situation. Our employees feel better if they are in the best possible health and Blue Cross wins as it seeks to reduce long-term costs for chronic illnesses and to reduce productivity losses associated with preventable absenteeism and disability."
Case in point: Blue Cross offers a rebate to employees who join at-work Weight Watchers and attend 90 percent of the on-site meetings. The money for the program was well spent -- in 2007 alone, employees enrolled in the program lost a total of 1,000 pounds.
In addition, Blue Cross also offers on-site fitness centers with
fitness classes, running clubs, and brown bag lunches covering a variety of
health and wellness topics. Employees also have access to programs such as
discounts for working out at fitness centers and worksite wellness
programs. Blue Cross' "Know Your Numbers" program helps employees
understand four key measures of go

Send to KindlePerhaps lost in the midst of the United States World University Games team's 91-51 thrashing of Norway on Sunday was the continued strong play of Colorado's Spencer Dinwiddie. Dinwiddie scored nine points and again recorded eight assists, his third time reaching the eight assist mark in six tournament games. The 6-foot-6 guard led the Buffs in scoring last year (15.3ppg) and took home 1st team All-Conference hardware, but what truly separates him is that unselfishness and vision. (Courtesy: Colorado Sports Information) Yesterday's eight helpers increased Dinwiddie's six game total to 35. Remarkably, he's only committed nine turnovers the entire tournament; nearly a 4-to-1 ratio. His assist total leads the team, topping the 31 handed out by Indiana's table-setter Yogi Ferrell. "Spencer has a great feel the game," former USC Head Coach Bob Cantu told College Chalktalk. "His length gives him a huge advantage, He's very good in the open court and can make plays out of the screen and roll. He has improved so much since high school. He has a very bright future!" Dinwiddie is making the most of his opportunity with Team USA on both ends of the floor. In addition to his assist work, he's averaging 8.3 points per contest and leading the team in steals, with 10 through the half dozen games. The U.S. faces another 4-2 team in Germany today at 10 a.m. Related Posts:Indiana's Ferrell, VCU's Treveon Graham lead US…Pac-12 regained swaggerPAC-12 Notebook: Washington Huskies in TransitionPAC-12 Notebook: Five Teams with Real Title HopesMountain West power shift

Dear Dr. Romance: I'm on the verge of total breakdown
By Tina B. Tessina on April 03, 2010
Dear Dr. Romance:
I need desperate help...i'm on the verge of total breakdown...i need immediate help so i searched the Internet and saw your email add.. here is my problem..please help please..please
i'm 20 yrs old...live in another country....I moved out of my parents place 1 yr ago.. My parents were abusive. They tormented me for 6 years before i decided to move out...So I stayed with my boyfriend of 1 year for 7 months, before deciding to move here with him.... Before I was here, I had lots of Hopes and Dreams..i know exactly what i'm going to do and all... but now i'm caught in the middle of a destructive whirlpool...My boyfriend took all the money that I have, he controls me. I cant go to any place that i want to. I have no Friends but I have to stay in his house the whole day....He monitors me from work as well..he checks all my activities online, and denies access to most things on the Internet except Internet and email.... I feel like I've made a HORRIBLE mistake....I've been crying for days now..I have absolutely nothing in my life anymore. I gave up my education, my friends, my life, my money and most of all, My Freedom....
Please say something to me because i really can't go on another day anymore....please help me please...i beg you..please say somethin to me...please
Dear Reader:
I'm so sorry to hear you're in trouble. It is very common for people who grew up in abusive homes to immediately get into abusive relationships. I don't know what resources exist where you live, but you should find yourself a woman's shelter immediately and get away from that boyfriend before you get injured. You are in danger because he knows you are dependent on him, and you must get help. Call the police or a local hotline, and ask if there's a shelter you can go to. Leave while your boyfriend is at work, and don't go back. Take what belongings you can with you, and leave the rest.
Once you get to a shelter, they will help you with both legal help and therapy. You need to heal your Post Traumatic Stress Disorder from the past, so you will be able to recognize whether a boyfriend loves you or not. This one doesn't love you, he just loves having power over you. Please get help immediately. Talking to me won't do you much good, because I'm so far away. Call a woman's hotline, or a shelter now. "How to Keep Yourself Out of a Violent Relationship" will give you some information that will help. You might also find It Ends With You will help you work through your PTSD from the past.
