Had the same horrible experience. I've been 3 times and my face is ruined. I have dark spots that will not go way after months and my face is still super sensitive to the sun.

I have been down the same path at you. Did a test spot with pico today. I m worried the laser will diminish fat and collegen and cause scarring. I've had a horrible experience and it was from laser and topicals. Please keep me updated READ COMMENT
I'm in the same boat. It's these so called treatments that leave irrepairable damage to your skin. My last hope is to inject stem cell fat into my face and hope for something magical :/ READ COMMENT

Product Description
The HD201 are closed, dynamic headphones featuring extended, accurate response, impressive dynamic potential and remarkable comfort. The HD201 has an over-the-ear closed-back design that delivers attenuation of ambient noise, encouraging the wearer to become fully immersed in sound without undue distractions. This headphone features smooth, natural, extended response.
The HD201's low frequency extends to 21 Hz and the HD215 to an amazing 12 Hz while both models perform to the upper limits of human hearing with ratings of 18 kHz and 22 kHz and deliver dynamic potential to spare for reproducing any musical style with real-world levels and impact, with SPL limits of 108 dB and 112 dB.
So despite it's unusually lightweight, comfortable design, the HD201 stands ready to create a true high-end personal listening experience, with the natural tonalities and impressive dynamic impact experienced listeners expect from any headphone carrying the Sennheiser name.

I've never had any distortion through them, as lower scoring reviews have suggested, even when pushing volume and whatever else to max. Honestly if you don't think you can get decent volume or sound quality from these then you're being far too picky, are very much in the wrong price bracket for your needs or are listening to your music far, far too loud.
Similarly, if they are breaking within a few weeks then you are either seriously mistreating them, they've been damaged in the post or you have received a faulty product. Mine have suffered numerous drops and prangs, and I've run over the cable with my desk chair more than I care to admit. They still perform flawlessly. Unfortunately, that same cable is the only reason it doesn't get 5 stars. Occasionally I've been very thankful that it's so long but when using them while on the PC or to watch TV late at night you have alot of extra cable trailing across the floor. And of course it will get inexplicably tangled in whatever it can (as cables do) unless you tie it up.
I have had nothing but a positive experience with these and would buy another pair in a heartbeat. Again, for the price, these are simply an amazing pair of headphones.Read more ›
The sound quality is absolutely outstanding. If I'd paid £100 for these, I'd have been happy. I'm no DJ or sound expert, but still cannot believe the clarity and rich sound. I'm not convinced the bass is as deep as some have said and I think it does need a little boost from an amp, but the phones handle it with no distortion. After buying these, I listened to various genres of music (from classical to trance) and wasn't disappointed with any. I then left them connected overnight with a playlist of the different music styles to bed them in. It does make a huge difference to the sound and is worth the effort.
No wonder Sennheiser have such a good reputation! Don't be fooled by the price of these, they look and sound a lot more expensive!!
>Loud (32ohm) and sealed shutting out outside sound and sealing your music in.
>They are VERY light AND comfortable
>Unrivalled sound quality at this price point
>If you are one of the anti-Grado fashion-esque folk then these headphones are stunners, the look COOL and expensive.
> The cable doesnt have an uptake and is quite long, so youll need a hairband or elastic band to keep the 3m cable under control.
>For the lazy hermits among you, there is no volume control, though i dont really see this as a disadvantage (they damage sound quality)
>They will make you/your teenager yearn for better sounding phones and when your kid starts begging you for the Senn HD650s dont complain.
Naturally they can't compare to £50+ sets out there, but how close they come is frightening. They're extremely light and comfortable, the mids dont honk like all other cheaper sets, and theres an evenness to the tone that suits a studios needs really well. I had an extremely talented pianist wear them all day in a very long session and he made no comment. He just never guessed that they were imposters in a professional environment.
The only quibble you could make is that they're a little quiet, so they need cranking, but me - I instantly ordered another set.

Connecticut is an "at will" employment state. An employer can terminate an employee for any reason or no reason. However, there are exceptions. An employee may not be discharged for discriminatory reasons, such as race, gender, national origin, religion or sexual orientation. An employee also may not be discharged in retaliation for refusing to comply with an illegal directive of the employer, or for engaging in certain other protected activities, or if the employment contract or collective bargaining agreement provides that the employee can only be discharged for cause. The reason for your termination appears unrelated to any of these protected categories, and hence your employer likely was within his right to terminate you. You may have more facts that may have a bearing on this assessment. You may want to speak to an employee rights lawyer in your state.
This response is for information purpose only and does not constitute a legal advice. This response does not create an attorney-client relationship.
What you have is your employer's customer refusing to be "serviced" by you. Your employer has no legal grounds to compel a different decision from their client. I don't see a legal ground for you here. I wish I did. After 2 years, this is a rotten deal.
My responses to questions on Avvo are never intended as legal advice and must not be relied upon as legal advice. I give legal advice only in the course of an attorney-client relationship. Exchange of information through Avvo's Questions forum does not establish an attorney-client relationship with me. That relationship is established only by individual consultation and execution of a written agreement for legal services.
Employment / Labor Attorney
With respect to Convictions, here in Connecticut Employers are allowed considerably more latitude when it comes to convictions. Inquiring about arrests that resulted in a felony conviction is not prohibited by law, and from an employers' perspective is a wise practice to follow. Nevertheless, employers do not have carte blanche. The EEOC suggests that employers consider the following in reviewing an applicant's conviction record:
• How long ago did the conviction take place?
• What were the circumstances of the offense?
• How many convictions were there?
• What is the applicant's employment record since the conviction?
• What rehabilitation has the applicant been through?
The EEOC further recommends that if inquiries about convictions are made, they be accompanied by a statement that a conviction record will not necessarily be a bar to employment, but factors such as recency and rehabilitation will be considered.
The concepts of "business necessity" and "job relatedness" rule. Each of these dictates, for example, that a firm would not be expected to employ a person with a recent record of embezzlement in a position of financial trust, nor a convicted child-molester as a meter reader; but the same persons might be suited to other jobs.
Keep in mind that denial of employment based on a record of convictions is much more likely to stand up to challenge than is a denial based on a single conviction or on arrests from which no convictions resulted.
Turning next to your set of facts, I want to invite you to contact my law firm so that we may explore with you everything that occurred immediately prior to your being notified of dismissal. And yes, we are Connecticut based employment lawyers. Good luck and best regards, Rob Fortgang

The skipper missed Wednesday night's Capital One Cup tie against West Ham after picking up a fifth booking against Liverpool last week.
Andros Townsend joined the injury list after picking up a hamstring problem in the second half against the Hammers.
Jan Vertonghen (ankle), Younes Kaboul (thigh) and Paulinho – who serves the second of his three-match ban – all miss the trip to St Mary's.
Tim Sherwood reported: "Michael will come back from suspension and the only positive for the players is that with Andros missing, someone else will get a chance to stand up and show what they can do."

Gender, Utopia, And Ostalgia: The Pre- and Post-Unification Visions of East German Science Fiction Writer Alexander Kroger.
Utopian Studies 2006, Summer, 17, 3
Utopian Studies
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
Science fiction authors from eastern Germany have begun to publish after a hiatus of more than ten years that followed reunification with the West on October 3, 1990. Almost without exception, these titles come from writers who worked in East Germany. Where many books are slightly revised versions from East German times, a few new novels and anthologies have also appeared. (1) On the whole, former eastern authors, who previously published in a protected market, now have joined science fiction authors all over Germany in their effort to find a national audience amidst heavy competition from Anglo-American translations. There is, however, one major exception to this rule. Alexander Kroger (pseudonym of Helmut Routschek) is an established author from the former East, who has managed to consistently publish a number of novels since his retirement from the natural gas industry in 1994. Like the majority of science fiction authors in the German Democratic Republic (GDR), Kroger wrote in his spare time. Despite this status, he became one of the genre's most prolific writers in East Germany. Since 1969, he has written some nineteen novels and numerous short stories. In the GDR, many of his titles appeared in multiple editions. Like most East German science fiction, his books continuously sold out. His total circulation now reaches upwards of 1.6 million copies. Kroger's novels have been translated into Polish, Hungarian, Russian, Sorbian and, most recently, into Chinese. Since 1995, he has published seven new novels and five new editions. This productive capacity in a time of relative silence merits notice.

Comparisons of migrants vs. native populations have become increasingly important as a means of gaining insight into the factors affecting health and mortality levels and the relationship between them. Taiwan underwent a unique migration in 1949-50, as more than a million people, mostly young males, arrived from Mainland China following the Communist civil war victory. The Mainlanders are distinct in several ways: they represented different provinces in China than the original settlers, were better educated, and had distinct occupational profiles. Since 1950, Taiwan has experienced a rapid demographic transition and notable economic development, resulting in mortality decline. In this paper, we generate age- and cause-specific death rates circa 1990 by education and nativity to evaluate the relative importance of each factor. We also use time series data on mortality and survey data to help interpret the differentials in terms of selection, risk factors, and other dynamics of health and mortality.

I knew nothing about the history of Bond, and which film came first or second, or third.... I knew nothing about the golden girl in Goldfinger, nothing about the sexual names of Bond's various mates...I didn't even know about the term "Bond girl". I know nothing about the gadgets, or M, Q, or Moneypenny.
Moonraker, which everybody seems to trashed, turned me on to the world of James Bond. I became a fan, and went on to see every movie that came before it (For You Eyes Only just came out in the theaters at the time)whenever it came on television.
If Moonraker is so BAD....as all the naysayers claimed, I would have not been a fan...and would never surrender myself to the world of 007. BUt instead, I loved this movie, and I became a 007 fan that day. And judging by the box office, Moonraker probably attracted thousands of new fans as well.Read more ›
However "Moonraker" does have academy-award nominated special effects, wonderful location work, a beautiful all-American leading lady in Lois Chiles and a wild confrontation between American Marine Astronauts(?) and the villain's stooges in outer space. (Sort of like the underwater fight-scene at the conclusion of "Thunderball" transferred to outer space.) In an attempt to outdo the pre-credits sequence of "The Spy Who Loved Me," "Moonraker" has Bond being pushed out of a plane without a parachute. This is a terrific and exciting sequence. (One thing "Moonraker" has an did not need was the return of Richard Kiel as "Jaws." The attempt to turn him into a good guy at the end was ridiculous.Read more ›
So there's this frog named Drax who wants to kill everyone on Earth, and start from scratch with his own breeding stock of beautiful people. The genocide of the ugly people of Earth comes by virtue of a space delivered disease, or nerve agent, or something equally superfluous, which Drax of course also manufactures.
I have a theory which goes a little something like this: When a man reaches a certain level of wealth, he naturally begins to contemplate some dimension of world conquest. The uber-villains Bond is often pitted against seem to pan this theory out nicely, begging the question, when will 007 take on Dick Cheney, Bill Gates, or Ronald McDonald?
So in comes old pervy Bond to salivate all over the dames, karate chop some mouth brething henchmen, and get all up in Drax's grille. Drax, for is his part, is no sllouch though. The man is straight evil, but his taste in women, crib's, and lasers is beyond reproach. I suppose because I grew up with Roger Moore playing Bond, I get the best of both worlds, because Connery and Moore are both Bond to me.
Now, in a movie which already has so much to offer the entertainment starved masses, we see the return of super hencmen JAWS. That alone should raise a pulse or two, because this guy is emma effin indestrutable. You can shoot him in the face, throw him out of an airplane, drop him in a tank full of ill tempered sharks, drop his a$$ from outerspace, and he doesn't die.Read more ›

Overall employment of mathematicians is expected to grow by 23 percent through 2022 (faster than the average for all careers), according to the U.S. Department of Labor. Despite this prediction, strong competition is expected for jobs since the field is so small. There will be more jobs in applied mathematics (and related areas such as computer programming, cloud computing, operations research, and engineering design) than in theoretical research. Those who have a background in another field in addition to mathematics (such as computer science and software development, physics, engineering, operations research, financial analysis, or life sciences research) will have especially strong opportunities.

USF Week gets $161K increase
After meeting Tuesday night, Student Government approved funding that would almost double the budget for what was talked about as "Homecoming Week in the spring."
Approving an additional $161,120, Student Government senators enhanced the budget for USF Week at Tuesday's senate meeting. The funding comes from the SG unallocated cash account and will be added to the Center for Student Involvement's existing $189,000 budget for USF Week and BullStock.
Described as a Homecoming week for the spring semester, senators discussed USF Week, which will take place the week of April 7 and include several events, ending with BullStock, an annual campus music festival open to the community featuring several bands.
Monica Miranda, director of the CSI, said USF Week's planning committee aims to improve a week in which traditions can be built for students.
"It's truly the greatest celebration of USF pride we can provide for the community," Miranda said.
Created after former Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio declared April 9 to be USF Day in 2010, the week includes a number of events. Last year, USF Week included a talent show, pep rally and "Rocky's Rockin Bday Bash." Last year's BullStock featured winners from a Battle of the Bands competition between local acts, Hot Chelle Rae, Owl City and All-American Rejects.
The proposed budget, which passed the Senate in a 31-8-1 vote, calls for $12,000 to be added to host the Ultimate Bull talent show and for marketing USF Week, $40,000 for an additional University Lecture Series speaker and $100,000 for BullStock.
For BullStock, $45,000 of the added funds will be allocated for improved staging to allow for less transition time between bands, $50,000 for a third performance in addition to the two main acts already being planned and $15,000 for various rides and attractions.
CJ Villa, a coordinator at CSI, said some of the increase for funding Bullstock was needed to book entertainers. Since USF Week coincides with the Coachella music festival this year, some artists required either quick booking or more money in order to come to USF. He said some performers USF considered were Ellie Goulding, Lorde and Bastille, but the performers chose Coachella instead. Villa said the lineup has yet to be finalized.
Other funds requested will go toward supplement the costs of bringing an "internationally recognized speaker" to USF for ULS.
During last year's lecture series, Grammy-winning singer and songwriter John Legend came to campus for USF Week. His lecture, which also featured some performances by Legend, cost $56,500. This year, SG allocated $264,152 for ULS, of which $69,000 was spent for last semester's speakers and $61,500 is budgeted for the first two speakers of this semester.
Members of the planning committee for USF Week told senators they hope the week can become a campus tradition, and one day become comparable to Homecoming week, which Villa said usually costs about $400,000. SG allotted this year's Homecoming steering committee $418,229.
Villa said attendance for CSI events has increased in recent semesters, with about 5,000 people coming to the larger events, such as this year's homecoming after party that featured rapper Wiz Khalifa, and an estimated 6,500 people attending last year's BullStock.
Prior to the approval of the additional funding, CSI had allocated $168,000 to BullStock and $21,000 to other USF Week events. This year's BullStock will take place April 11.

|"Having grown up in the area that the story is based upon, I like the changes made by Gray. The "Corkscrew Tunnel" is the Spiral Tunnels above Field B.C. The town of Silver and to the west, Stoke undoubtably refer to the towns of Golden and Revelstoke, B.C. So far the story is very intriguing and offers hints of horror and mystery. Very impressed so far."

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Hi Felix, Thank you for your quick answer :) Felix Meschberger a écrit : >> Some questions to check what I might do wrong: >> + What is the default port used for RMI ? > The default RMI port in a Java VM is 1099 That's what I thought... >> + is the //localhost/jackrabbit.repository url correct ? > No, the default configuration would be for port 1099, that is > //localhost:1099/jackrabbit.repository Ok... thus omitting the port won't choose the default one ? nevermind... >> + is there something else to add ? > Considering, you might not have used the correct port, this might be > your issue.

I added the logs of the jackrabbit servlet startup here: http://pastebin.com/678426 It seems like the port 1099 is busy... but netstat -a doesn't show me this port as active... I even try to change the port, but I still get the same exception: "Port already used".

Just got here 06-10-2012 and liked the site. Threw a few thoughts out, so please forgive me the newbie thing.
Played D&D since 86 and GM since about 90-91. Experience with Basic, AD&D, 2e, 3e, Played only 4e. Also GMed Warhammer FRP, Runequest 3rd, Played Gamma world, Cyberpunk, Battletech & Mechwarrior, and Pathfinder. I've played more than that, but those are the ones off the top of my head.
I've learned everything I need to know that I don't know everything I need to know.

Fire on Calusa Lane:
The following was reported at approximately 10:30 am on May 1, 2016.
Just wanted you to know that there were 3 teenage boys in the empty lot across the street from us this morning and about 10 minutes ago I went outside to find they had started a fire in the middle of the lot.
Two of the boys were leaving when I went across the street to see what they were doing. I asked the remaining boy if that was his property and what he was doing starting a fire. He said that it was not his property and his brother was bringing water to extinguish the fire. I told him that was not a good idea and I went back to my house to get some water to help put the fire out.
In the few minutes it took to get back with the water, the boy had left with the fire still burning.
I put three buckets of water on the fire and I believe it is completely out.
I'm not sure who the boys are but I have seen the three of them riding their bikes around the neighborhood.
The owner of this vacant lot (Lot 70; 4013 Calusa Lane) has approved the posting of "No Trespassing" signs on his property.
Approximately 15 minutes after receiving the report of a fire on Calusa Lane 3 teenage boys on bicycles were observed entering the house under construction on North Chinook. A homeowner on North Chinook confronted the boys and informed them that they were on private property and if they entered again the sheriff would be called. This homeowner inspected the house and reported that there appeared to be no damage.
Sheriffs non-emergency phone number: 386-248-1777

Like I said in response to Rajith, I've been under water until this week so I may have missed some things, so, my apologies. I'll look into this stuff right away. One question though, had you already been working with Rajith's patch in your local environment? IOW, are the patches attached to 1527, 1528 and 1530 aware of Rajith's patch?

Publisher's Description
Peter Craigie demonstrates in this commentary that the biblical psalms express "the most profound of human feelings and insights-prayer, praise, liturgy, wisdom and lament." Through careful analysis of language and form, he communicates both the emotional and theological impact of the psalms as originally experienced by the people of Israel at public worship and in private devotions.
Professor Craigie's translations and interpretations of each of the first fifty psalms apply insights into the Hebrew language and Israel's literature drawn from Ugaritic texts. He provides a careful and critical analysis of various controversial proposals based on these sources for understanding the early substance and later form of the Psalter.
This revision of WBC 19 by Marvin Tate preserves all of Professor Craigie's original exposition and augments it with an extensive supplement that updates the bibliographies and documents the explosive growth in Psalm studies in the last two decades of the twentieth century. Professor Tate's comprehensive additions survey and evaluate new trends in the scholarship on:
- Hebrew Poetry
- Psalms Exegesis
- The Nature of the Psalter
The psalms are central parts of the worshiping life of Jewish and Christian communities, and are the roots of the musical heritage of both traditions. Dr. Craigie's and Dr. Tate's careful analyses will give the reader a new appreciation of the reality that life and faith, history and liturgy, and struggle and prayer are inseparable in the life of the people of God.
Author Bio
Marvin E. Tate is Senior Professor of Old Testament Interpretation at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky. His publications include Psalms 51-100, vol. 20 in the Word Biblical Commentary series.

The Richmond Federal Reserve Bank said that manufacturing activity in its district improved in July after weakening once again in June. The composite index of general business activity rebounded from -10 in June, its lowest reading since January 2013, to 10 in July. Indeed, the underlying data recovered across-the-board in this report, including new orders (up from -17 to 15), shipments (up from -8 to 7), capacity utilization (up from -11 to 3) and the average workweek (up from -7 to 1). In addition, manufacturers in the region accelerated their employment growth (up from 1 to 6) somewhat. Each of these indices were encouraging. Yet, this report has been highly volatile so far this year from month-to-month, with the headline number ranging from -10 in June to 17 in March. Hopefully, the expansion seen in July can be sustained moving forward. Read More
The Dallas Federal Reserve Bank said that manufacturing activity in its Texas district stabilized somewhat in July, even as sentiment has now contracted for 19 straight months. The composite index of general business conditions increased from -18.3 in June to -1.3 in July, bringing this measure closer to neutral territory. This shift was mirrored by better production (up from -7.0 to 0.4), capacity utilization (up from -9.3 to 0.3), shipments (up from -8.6 to 0.1) and capital expenditures (up from -2.1 to 4.8), with each index expanding slightly in July. As such, this release represented some progress for a state that has grappled with lower energy prices and the strong dollar over the past couple years. Read More
Interestingly, the last Markit survey's responses on Eurozone manufacturing activity were due on June 23, the day of the "Brexit" vote for the United Kingdom to exit the European Union. In that survey, the Markit Eurozone Manufacturing PMI rose to a six-month high, with stronger data in most European markets, including Germany and the U.K. Suffice it to say, the surprise – at least for financial markets – decision for Britain to leave the European Union has shifted sentiment since then. In the latest survey, the Markit Flash Eurozone Manufacturing PMI fell to a two-month low, down from 52.8 in June to 51.9 to July, mainly on slowing new orders (down from 53.4 to 52.0). The composite measure, which includes the service sector, edged down from 53.1 to 52.9, its lowest level since January 2015 and off from 54.3 six months ago. Read More
As noted earlier, the U.S. economy grew by an annualized 1.1 percent in the first quarter, and the Bureau of Economic Analysis has now released data breaking out that growth by industry. In short, real value-added output in the manufacturing sector increased by 1.4 percent in the first quarter of 2016, slowing from 2.6 percent and 2.4 percent growth in the third and fourth quarters of 2015, respectively. As a result, manufacturers contributed 0.16 percentage points to headline growth in the first quarter, down from 0.31 percent and 0.29 percent in the prior two quarters.
Looking specifically at manufacturing in the first quarter, real value-added from nondurable goods firms rose 3.8 percent at the annual rate, but durable goods manufacturers saw output decline by 0.6 percent. Therefore, durable and nondurable goods businesses contributed -0.04 percent and 0.2 percent, respectively, to real GDP for the quarter. Read More
The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia said that manufacturing sentiment in July contracted for the third time in the past four months (or the ninth time in the past 11 months). The composite index of general business activity declined from 4.7 in June to -2.7 in July. It is likely that post-Brexit worries negatively impacted assessments about the broader economy. Despite a decrease in the headline number, many of the underlying data points improved for the month. For instance, both new orders (up from -3.0 to 11.8) and shipments (up from -2.1 to 6.0) returned to expansion territory in July, which was encouraging. Indeed, the percentage of respondents suggesting that orders had increased for the month rose from 20.6 percent in June to 27.6 percent in July, with those noting declining sales dropping from 23.6 percent to 15.8 percent. Read More
The Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development said that new housing starts rose to a three-month high in June, recovering a bit from a springtime lull. New residential construction activity increased from an annualized 1,135,000 in May to 1,189,000 in June. This was not far from 1.2 million units, a threshold that the market seems unable to maintain of late. Nonetheless, I would expect 1.21 million housing units started by year's end. Indeed, residential construction remains one of the brighter spots in the economy, and builders remain mostly upbeat about the next six months, according to the National Association of Home Builders. With that said, housing starts were off 2.0 percent over the past 12 months, mainly from volatility in the multifamily segment. Single-family starts were more indicative of recent strength, up 13.4 percent year-over-year.
In this report, both single-family (up from 745,000 to 778,000) and multifamily (up from 390,000 to 411,000) starts data were higher in June. New single-family residential construction activity grew at its fastest pace since February, and they continue a slow-but-steady trend higher. Single-family housing starts have averaged 776,333 year-to-date in 2016 through June, up from 675,833 for the same time frame in 2015. At the same time, the multifamily starting pace represented a nine-month high, with these figures experiencing large swings from month-to-month. The year-over-year comparison was skewed by an outsized gain in activity in June 2015 to 527,000 units. If you exclude that outlier, multifamily starts rose from an average of 368,800 through the first 5 months of 2015 to an average of 379,167 in the first half of 2016.
Meanwhile, housing permits increased from 1,136,000 to 1,153,000, a four-month high. Permits were slightly higher for both single-family (up from 731,000 to 738,000) and multifamily (up from 731,000 to 738,000) units. Permits are often a proxy for future activity, and in that light, the gain was somewhat encouraging, even if we might prefer faster growth. Much like the housing starts numbers, the year-over-year data were off sharply, down 13.6 percent from 1,334,000 housing permits in June 2015. The prior year's permitting rate was skewed by strong multifamily activity, as noted above. Excluding that figure, growth in permits has been essentially unchanged, up from an average of 1,140,400 in the first 5 months of 2015 to 1,141,000 in the first half of 2015.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics said that consumer prices rose 0.2 percent in June, matching the gain seen in May. It marked the fourth straight monthly increase in consumer costs. Higher energy costs have helped to buoy these growth in consumer prices over that time frame, up 1.3 percent in June alone. With that said, energy prices have declined over the past year as a whole, down 9.4 percent, and they have generally helped to keep a lid on larger pricing pressures over that time frame. Food costs have also quite modest over the past year, up just 0.3 percent since June 2015, which has helped. In June, food prices were off by 0.1 percent, with costs lower for meats, dairy and fruits and vegetables. On a year-over-year basis, the consumer price index increased 1.1 percent, unchanged from the pace seen in the prior two releases but accelerating from 0.7 percent six months ago. Read More
The Empire State Manufacturing Survey said that manufacturing activity slowed to a crawl in July after rebounding in June. The composite index of general business conditions declined from 6.0 in June to 0.6 percent in July. On the positive side, the headline index had been -9.0 in May, suggesting some progress over the past couple months even if growth remained less than desired. The underlying data were generally weaker in this report, including new orders (down from 10.9 to -1.8) and shipments (down from 9.3 to 0.7). Nearly 29 percent of respondents in this survey said that orders were higher in July, down from 34.2 percent in June; conversely, the percentage stating decreased orders rose from 23.2 percent to 30.8 percent for the month. The labor market data continued to be discouraging. Hiring (down from zero to -4.4) and the average employee workweek (down from -5.1 to -5.5) were both negative. Read More
The Bureau of Economic Analysis is out with a new report showing that new foreign direct investment (FDI) jumped significantly in 2015. This includes investments for business acquisitions, for establishing new businesses and for expanding new businesses. In other words, businesses around the world are investing even more right here in the United States—spurring opportunities for job growth and strengthening the manufacturing industry. Read More
Manufacturing production rebounded in June after a disappointing May report. Output in the sector rose by 0.4 percent in June, following a decline of 0.3 percent in May. Strong growth in the motor vehicles and parts segment, up 5.9 percent, helped to boost the headline number. Yet, despite some progress in June, it is safe to say that manufacturing activity remains quite challenged. Over the past 12 months, manufacturing production has risen by just 0.4 percent. That is an improvement from the year-year over year decline of 0.2 percent seen in May, but such sluggish growth was indicative of recent struggles that manufacturers have had in light of global headwinds. Capacity utilization increased from 74.8 percent to 75.1 percent, but that remained lower than the 75.3 percent utilization rate observed in June 2015. Read More

Out of the frying pan and onto the water
July 21, 2016
Remember when I was running 5ks? It seems like only yesterday I was literally kicking ass and taking names at 9Round Penrose and doing Pacers-sponsored 5k races. Well, that took a break.
I caught some sort of bug and tried to use my human immune system to fight off the invading armies with sleep, liquids, OTC drugs, and some some healthy living.
After ten days, it wasn't working. I visited the INOVA clinic down the street on Columbia Pike and actually said no to what would have ended the debilitating acute sinusitis that then became some sort of acute ear infection — another ten days.
Finally, I went back and was prescribed a ZPACK: ten more days.
Then, ten more days to recover from the cough, congestion, sputum, and sore throat.
Well, in the middle of that, I was cordially invited to become a full member of Potomac Boat Club, something I had been interested in doing since I was a teenage college rower on GWU Crew.
The boathouse at the end of Water Street in Georgetown is an athletic club. The one you can see from Key Bridge or Rosslyn. The one with the red floating dock with the bright white star on it.
But I am back to square one. After close to forty days of sleeping a lot and rarely working more than three or four hours-a-day, I am returning to this blog, the RNNR blog, and getting back on track.

27 pages
How to Build Muscle for Rowing is such a simple and persistent gym machine-based workout that it just might work. Just leg press, lat pulldown, bench press, shoulder press, weighted situps (ab machine), bicep curls, triceps extension. But it's a very progressive and demanding workout that is also very gentle on the body while realizing that the goal is rowing on the water faster. The book is only available on Kindle so you can only get it on Amazon.
I used to freedive by myself as a teen growing up in Hawaii
June 24, 2016
I used to freedive by myself as a teen growing up in Hawaii. I carried a Nikonos III and a knife. I tied my leg to a 100′ white nylon line that tied to a float and a dive flag. I launched from Kaimana Beach.
Whenever I got hungry, after a couple hours or so, I would tuck into the plentiful sea urchins, tapping open a hole on tip with the butt of the dive knife, like in this photo, but with my fingers instead of a spoon and spiced with brine.
I didn't drink water until I ended up kicking to shore. I wore these fins and ignored things like shallow water blackout and the buddy system.
I could easily hyperventilate, take a deep breath, and then kick down to the the Mahi Ship Wreck.
Ha ha! Memories of Hawaii.
Smoky Chipotle Refried Beans
June 6, 2016
- 3 cups dried pinto beans
- 1 medium white or yellow onion, chopped
- 2-3 garlic cloves, chopped
- Half inch piece dried Kombu seaweed
- 1-2 dried whole chipotle peppers or canned chipotles in adobo to taste
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 2 teaspoons dried epazote (can substitute cilantro)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 and a half teaspoons sea salt
- Soak the beans in water to cover by 2 inches, 8 hours or overnight. Drain and rinse the beans in a colander a few times, then transfer to a large pot. Add the onion, garlic, seaweed, chipotles, and spices. Add water to cover the beans by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and simmer over medium-low heat for about 1 hour, or until the beans are soft and cooked through.
- Drain the beans, reserving 4 cups of the liquid, remove the seaweed. Remove the chiles, or leave one in if spicier beans are desired. Cool the beans for 15 minutes, then place in a food processor along with half cup of the liquid and process until smooth. If desired, you may thin the beans with additional cooking liquid.
- Return the pureed beans to the pot with the olive oil and salt. Simmer over low to medium-low heat for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Serve warm.
- Refried beans keep refrigerated for 5 to 6 days or freeze well several months.
I'm swinging a kettlebell for 90-seconds every 60-minutes
May 4, 2016
Exercise & Fitness
Well-Being Skills
April 19, 2013
I am very sedentary. They tell me that sitting kills. So, I took to kettlebells. I work from home so I can workout during the day. At first I would do one 45-60-minute kettlebell workout but then I discovered Get Fit, Get Fierce with Kettlebell Swings: Just 12 Minutes a Day to Lose Weight, Prevent Sitting Disease, Hone Your Body and Tone Your Booty! and feel like I won the lottery.
I could get off my butt every hour (I am using a GymBoss interval timer to keep track of it) and swing my kettlebell for 90-second every 60-minutes. They say that the two-handed kettlebell swing is all you need to get oneself into phenomenal shape, both fitness and strength.
I don't even really break a sweat, though I am only running a 12kg kettlebell until I can slowly build to my 16kg, my 20kg, and ultimately my 24kg bells. Even though the workouts are for only 90-seconds every hour, maybe 6-12-times-a-day, they really build up and I can feel it in my glutes and hamstrings almost immediately.
The only thing that one must do is to be sure to stretch and not to just sit down on the couch right afterwards. As kettlebell god Pavel likes to say, after you do kettlebell swings, you need to make sure you don't hunch forwards, that you should sit or stand proudly upright.
So, if you decide to add Get Fit, Get Fierce with Kettlebell Swings into your workout routine, be sure not to underestimate their effects on your entire body. Warm-up, cool down, stretch, and be sure not to allow your body to seize up.
If you give maybe 90-seconds to stretching and cooling down after every 90-second workout, you've still only "wasted" a total of 3-minutes every hour on exercise, a combined 18-36-minutes/day, max! More like 9 minutes if you don't stretch and 18 if you do.
I mentioned that I had become obsessed with Don Fitch's deceptively easy Get Fit, Get Fierce with Kettlebell Swings ebook back in October of last year, right after I realized that swinging a kettlebell for 90-seconds every 60-minutes can very well be punishing if you go from cold to hot without ever warming up and cooling down.
I started doing this sustainable workout and quickly injured myself.
Well, almost 8-months later and I am back at it. Starting today, I am trying it again and have been doing it all day — or, at least since I got in to the office at around noon.
Because I don't want to hurt myself, I am easing myself into kettlebells by doing all my swings using a light-for-me 12 kilogram competition kettlebell that I bought from Christian's Fitness Factory AKA CFF-FIT.
A reminder, if you're going to engage in 90-seconds of vigorous kettlebell swings every hour, all day long, every day, even with only a single 12kg bell, then a stretching regimen is essential. 90-seconds is longer than you think so use the lightest weight you can in order to swing your kettlebell with perfect form for a minute-and-a-half every hour over the course of the entire day.
I'm giving it a go, though I don't want it to replace other things I am doing like running, like my running commutes, my Concept2 rowing pieces, challenging 30-minute full-body workouts at 9Round and streaming workouts via DailyBurn.
Why am I doing it? Well, it gets me off of my duff or away from work for at least 90-seconds every hour. Sometimes I am on my treadmill desk or working sitting on my Swiss Exercise Ball and it's not too essential that I swing every hour, other times I disappear into sedentary work on my office's sofa and having my GymBoss beep at me that it's time to swing my a kettlebell for 90-seconds really breaks through my tendency to hyper-focus and lose an entire day lost in work from deep in the couch.
I set them up simply: the first interval is 100-seconds, which gives me ten seconds to get to the bell and start swinging, and the second interval is for 60-minutes.
I have the GymBoss set up to repeat 12-times even though the book recommends 8 sets for a total of two minutes.
I feel like the only stretches that I will need to do at the end of every 90-second session are the calf-stretch, the standing quadriceps stretch, standing hamstring stretch, and the hip adductors (inner thigh) stretch — what am I missing?
What stretches should I do every time that I am missing and what should I maybe do at the beginning or at the end of my swinging day.
Anyway, please let me know in the comments.
Wish me luck! Good luck to you, too!

My last 5k in the series was my fastest by half-a-minute!
May 1, 2016
I took part in the 5-week series of 5ks called the Crystal City 5k Fridays, as you may know, and my first race took me 46:17, my second race took me 46:11, my 4th race took me 46:01 (I missed week three), and my final race took me 32-seconds fewer at 45:33! So, I feel like I made so much progress over the course of April, especially considering too many injuries. Thanks to Pacers Running and Crystal City BID for setting this big do every year. I'll be back next year!
