Cougs started slow, but played another outstanding game the final 10 minutes.
Bartley's jam was the highlight of the game, even though Mika had a few
throw downs of his own. It's great to see Halford hitting.
Looking forward to the next game against UMass. A win could bring a Top 25 sighting for the Cougs. Love watching the team play - this is an exciting brand of basketball.

Collinsworth plays basketball in a manner that is making this team special.
His ability to play basketball at point or at a guard position with strength,
unselfishness and speed, size and determination remind me of another special
player, Magic Johnson. That was his brand of basketball and he made everyone
succeed around him. As much as I think Marty's son is special, Kyle is
special as well.
Mica is as skilled at center that I have seen in recent history here at BYU for a freshman. Davies was better defensively, but Davies did not develop his offense till his junior year.
This team could beat Gonzaga. Could do some damage in the Tourney(not NIT).
I give some credit to Carlino on an off night for helping his team to win with rebounds and assists. He got a double double. That is commendable.

Was a fun game to watch as it was close in the first half, but in the 2nd it
seemed like North Texas got worse at shooting and clearly was no where near as
aggressive as BYU, even though they were billed as a fast transition team like
I hope this was a down game for BYU and they will play better against UMass, they really need a win against a top 25 team and UMass will be a good chance for BYU to get one. It will be fun to watch as some comments I've seen say UMass plays even faster than BYU. In a post game interview Rose said UMass was "as fast or faster" than BYU.

Nice win Cougs. Keep it rolling all the way to RES and roll over the utes.
They have shown their true colors tonight now that they had to finally play a
Div. I team..
BYU is a very dangerous team and will cause havoc for a lot of teams that can't run for a full 40 minutes. I think the utes are in serious trouble when the Cougs come to town. Utah might want to forfeit the game. BYU has too many weapons this year and have 7 players who can score in double figures on any night.

BYU will be an exciting team that beats up on bad and mediocre teams, but they
won't be able to beat true elite teams more than occasionally. Why? Matt
Carlino. Shame, because he's clearly talented and competitive. If he had
just half the hoops IQ of John Stockton or Chris Paul I would be excited for a
long tourney run. Unfortunately his decision-making chip is fried beyond
recognition. How many times can you almost physically see him decide "OK . .
TIME FOR ME TO SHOOT!" befor he dribbles into two bigs and forces up some
slop or launches a 25-footer before evaluating the defense or attempting to run
a play?
Efficient PG play is a hallmark of most truly special teams. Carlino is a head case whose play will continue to careen from spectacular to catastrophic, sometimes both within the same minute. I have to wonder what goes on in Coach Rose's mind after each of Matt's bizarre decisions?

Polls are flawed like it has always been. We haven't got any votes yet and if we did beat UMass this Saturday we might get just one vote from local media. That what I have noticed in past.

I kind of agree with SlopJ30, Carlino is a blessing and curse all in one. He can play great than play very poorly and it does come down to decision making. He takes too many very poor shots, shots he could get at anytime in the shot clock and he takes them 5 seconds in rather than waiting. BYU looked good and recovered from a slow start, they looked a little lethargic in the first half and then came on. I hope they can beat Umass this weekend. The difference between his year and last is that byu is being extremely competitive against ranked teams and we were not that last year. Hope the team will learn and begin to win those games. ultimately, if they don't get some wins against the ranked teams, playing them and losing them won't mean much to the selection committee, although it can still help the team to get better.

Watching Utah and BSU play, it gave me an appreciation for how good Carlino is. Sure, he pushes too hard sometimes but he is a very good point guard. Handles the ball well, is strong, good rebounder. BYU also has a deep bench except for the big guys. Could be a special year.

While I believe finances are a huge part of a relationship in general I don't think anyone wants to be told by a boyfriend or how to spend the money they earned. My opinion is unless you plan on merging your money don't worry about how anyone spend their cash.
Though I do appreciate and respect your opinion, I offer the analogy of an addict who spends all of their money on drugs. Would you not try to help this person cease their drug habit and save their money?
My girlfriend still lives at home and has been all through the last 5 years she's been working at a dental office. In that time, she has amassed zero savings (other than the tax refund she just got, which I'm sure will get spent) and she eventually wants to go to dental school (expensive). I look at trying to get her to save on interest as helping her learn to save her money for decades down the line when it comes to retirement. Even if she doesn't get her finances in order with me, I feel that if I could help her understand the importance of not paying interest and saving her money, that equates to less burden on taxpayers as a whole when fifty years from now she retires. Otherwise, she would be relying heavily on the system to support her, which of course will come from taxpayer funds.

Vt. man accused of NH stabbing found 'restorable'July 29,2013The Associated Press
NORTH HAVERHILL, N.H. - A psychologist has declared a Vermont man charged with fatally stabbing a private school trustee in a New Hampshire hotel lobby "not competent, but restorable."
Rodney Hill of West Danville, Vt., said he was going through a divorce and was angry over an email from his boss when he stabbed White Mountain School trustee Catherine Houghton on Jan. 28 at the Hampton Inn in Littleton. They were strangers.
The Caledonian Record reports (http://bit.ly/149TjAR) Dennis Becotte, a clinical psychologist with the state Office of the Forensic Medical Examiner, diagnosed Hill in February. A second psychologist was scheduled to examine Hill on July 11.
A judge granted a motion to seal Hill's competency evaluation and related documents on July 22.
Trial for the 37-year-old Hill has tentatively been scheduled for March 2014.MORE IN This Just In

Metro Gets Online a Decade Late to Stem Electronics Loss: Retail
For Metro AG, Germany's largest retailer, showing up 10 years late for the online party is better than not turning up at all.
A decade after Amazon.com Inc. started selling televisions and cameras to Germans, Metro's Saturn stores followed this week, to be joined in January by its Media Markt chain. The decision will help Metro post sales growth at the division of
4.4 percent in 2012, the average of five analyst estimates shows, returning the traditionally fastest-growing business to expansion after its first loss in at least 10 years.
The resumption of growth "will not happen without Web sales," said Sebastian Frericks, a Frankfurt-based analyst at Bankhaus Metzler. "Media Saturn is not competitive compared with online businesses and that's why e-commerce is very important to stop the electronics business from bleeding."
Whether the unit can restore sales growth to a five-year historic average of 9.4 percent may also depend on it cutting store prices that can be more than 10 percent higher than at online competitors. Metro, searching for a successor to Chief Executive Officer Eckhard Cordes, must reduce the amount it charges Saturn and Media Markt customers by 5 percent on average, according to Peter Steiner, an analyst at BHF-Bank AG.
After 20 years of being Metro's growth driver, Media-Saturn has contributed to a 40 percent decline in the company's share price this year as delays getting online meant losing sales to cheaper rivals. The Dusseldorf-based retailer also faces a domestic retail market where sales declined the most in more than four years in August, as concern about the impact of Europe's sovereign debt crisis weighs on consumer spending.
'Very Ambitious'
Media-Saturn, which acquired Web retailer Redcoon GmbH in July, is targeting 5 billion euros ($6.9 billion) in online sales by 2015, a goal which is "very ambitious, but feasible," said Thomas Effler, an analyst at WestLB in Frankfurt. By then, the company will be under new leadership. Cordes said this week that he won't renew his contract beyond next year, citing media speculation of opposition on the company's board.
"There are lots of challenges for the future CEO," said Christoph Schlienkamp, an analyst at Bankhaus Lampe in Dusseldorf. These include deciding on the future of Kaufhof department stores and the Real supermarket chain, which Metro has said it may sell or find partners for.
Metro reported second-quarter profit that missed analysts' estimates in August, weighed down by an operating loss of 44 million euros at the consumer-electronics division, which accounts for almost a third of group revenue.
The retailer's online pricing is expected to be "quite aggressive" to compete with the likes of Amazon.de, said Robert Greil, an analyst at Merck Finck & Co. in Munich.
Simpsons DVD
The Saturn.de website offers a Canon digital camera at 175 euros and a DVD of the latest series of The Simpsons for 43.99 euros, matching prices on Amazon's German site, while a De Longhi coffee machine is cheaper than at its competitor.
"They're late to join the party, but are making an effort to bring down prices to a level similar to the Internet," said Mark Josefson, an analyst at Silvia Quandt Research GmbH.
Media-Saturn last year began online operations in the Netherlands and Austria, where its prices are "much closer to a competitive level," Charles Allen, global food retail analyst at Bloomberg Industries, said in a phone interview.
Still, prices at Saturn stores can be more expensive than online. A Bosch washing machine could be found on the Web more than 10 percent cheaper than its price in a Frankfurt Saturn shop on Oct. 8, including the cost of delivery, while a Samsung fridge could also be bought for almost 10 percent less online.
Multichannel Approach
Saturn's website went live in Germany on Oct. 10, giving customers the option to pick up or exchange goods in a store. The retailer has 144 Saturn stores and 237 Media-Market outlets in Germany. Worldwide, the chains have 862 stores combined.
"Being able to pick up an item in a store and take it back to a store is a big advantage," Josefson said.
Saturn charges as much as 39.90 euros for home delivery of "large goods" on purchases made through its website.
PPR SA, the French owner of the Gucci luxury-goods brand, and Dixons Retail Plc, Europe's second-largest electronics retailer behind Metro, are among businesses that have benefited from a multichannel approach combining stores and the Web.
Online sales at Fnac, PPR's French electronics and media chain, rose 17 percent to 185 million euros in the first half, and represented 9.9 percent of the unit's revenue. Overall, Fnac sales dropped 3.2 percent on a like-for-like basis.
'A Big Plus'
Dixons started its online platform more than a decade ago and had Web sales of more than 1 billion pounds ($1.6 billion) in its last fiscal year ended April 30. Online revenue at the U.K. owner of the Currys and PC World chains now represents 14 percent of sales, up from about 10 percent five years ago.
"Having an online business plus shops bringing image, logistics and service is a big plus," said Marc Renaud, Paris-based founder of Mandarine Gestion, which has about 2 billion euros under management and holds Metro shares in its 840 million-euro Mandarine Valeur fund. "That's the reason why they could succeed in spite of being late," he said of Metro.

Its finally over between Black Swan actress Mila Kunis and her longtime boyfriend and 'Home Alone' star Macaulay Culkin.
Los Angeles -- The ballet drama "Black Swan" led with 12 nods for Critics' Choice Awards in the U.S. Broadcast Film Critics Association's announcement of its nominees Monday.
The 16th annual Critics' Choice Movie Awards are to be handed out Jan. 14 at the Hollywood Palladium.
This is the fourth year in a row VH1 will broadcast the gala live on the network and the first year the show will also be broadcast internationally.
"Black Swan" received an unprecedented 12 nominations Monday, the group said. The film was nominated for Best Picture, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, Best Editing, Best Costume Design, Best Makeup, Best Sound and Best Score.
Los Angeles -- "127 Hours," "Black Swan" and "Winter's Bone" were nominated for the Independent Spirit Award for best feature in Los Angeles Tuesday.
"Greenberg" and "The Kids Are All Right" also earned nods for the top film prize.
In the running for the best director title are Darren Aronofsky for "Black Swan," Danny Boyle for "127 Hours," Lisa Cholodenko for "The Kids Are All Right," Debra Granik for "Winter's Bone" and John Cameron Mitchell for "Rabbit Hole."
Nominated for the best first feature prize are "Everything Strange and New," "Get Low," "The Last Exorcism," "Night Catches Us" and "Tiny Furniture."
New York -- "Black Swan," "Blue Valentine," "The Kids Are All Right," "Let Me In" and "Winter's Bone" were nominated for best picture at the Gotham Independent Film Awards.
The casts of "The Kids Are All Right," "Winter's Bone," "Life During Wartime," "Please Give" and "Tiny Furniture" were nominated for best ensemble performance.
The Independent Filmmaker Project announced the nominees Monday.
The Gotham Awards' 20th anniversary ceremony will be held Nov. 29 at Manhattan's Cipriani Wall Street.
In addition to the competitive awards, actors Robert Duvall and Hilary Swank, director Darren Aronofsky and Focus Features Chief Executive Officer James Schamus will each be presented with a career tribute.
Venice, Italy -- "Black Swan," a psychological thriller starring Natalie Portman and Winona Ryder, has been selected to open the Venice film festival, organizers said.
Directed by Darren Aronofsky, the movie is about the rivalry between two dancers at a competitive ballet company in New York.
"The cast and crew of 'Black Swan' are both excited and humbled by the selection committee's invitation," the BBC quoted Aronofsky as saying in a statement. "It is an honor to walk the great red carpet on the Lido, and we are excited to premiere our film to the wonderful audiences in Venice."
The festival is to run from Sept. 1-11.
Copyright 2010 United Press International, Inc. (UPI).
Los Angeles -- Actress Natalie Portman is attached to play the lead in Darren Aronofsky's ballet thriller "Black Swan," The Hollywood Reporter said.
Portman would play a veteran ballerina locked in a competitive situation with a rival dancer who could be real, a supernatural apparition or a hallucination, the entertainment industry trade newspaper said.
If negotiations go well, Aronofsky could start shooting "Swan" with Portman as early as this year, The Hollywood Reporter said.
Aronofsky previously directed "Requiem for a Dream," "The Fountain" and "The Wrestler."
Portman's film credits include "The Other Boleyn Girl," "V for Vendetta" and "Garden State."

Following testing crash, Keselowski says road courses are most dangerous tracksNick Bromberg at From The Marbles 14 hrs ago
Brad Keselowski said Friday following his head-on collison at Watkins Glen on Wednesday that he believed road courses were the most dangerous types of tracks because of the angles in which a driver can hit the wall.
Keselowski's car had a brake failure during a testing session and slammed into a foam-covered wall head-on at approximately 80 MPH. The 2012 Sprint Cup Series champion emerged unscathed from the accident and said he felt the danger resulted from not only the angles in which a driver can hit a wall at a road course but also because of the large run-off areas at a track like the Glen, where the Cup Series races next week.
Watkins Glen has a significant run-off area on the outside of turn 1 and drivers enter the 90-degree right-hand turn coming down a significant hill. Keselowski's crash was the latest spectacular crash in that area of the track. It's impossible to forget Jimmie Johnson's collision there in what's now the Xfinity Series.

Tony Stewart's insurance not liable for damages stemming from Ward incidentNick Bromberg at From The Marbles 14 hrs ago
A court ruling Friday said Tony Stewart's insurance company wasn't obligated to pay any damages or fees regarding an incident at a dirt track in upstate New York where Stewart struck and killed sprint car driver Kevin Ward.
Stewart and Ward were racing each other at Canandaigua Motorsports Park in a sprint car race when Ward hit the wall. Ward exited his car and walked down the track to gesture to Stewart and was hit by the right-rear tire on Stewart's car. Stewart was not charged in the incident and has said he didn't see Ward walking on the track until it was too late.
The Ward family has filed a civil suit against Stewart regarding Kevin's death.
Stewart's insurance company had contended it wasn't obligated to cover Stewart's sprint car teams for what happened on August 9, 2014. It said Tony Stewart Racing's insurance policy outlined specific events for the policy – the race at Canandaigua not being one of them – and a U.S. District Judge agreed with the company. From ESPN:
Stewart missed three Sprint Cup races in 2014 following Ward's death.
Martin Truex Jr. qualifies first at PoconoNick Bromberg at From The Marbles 1 day ago
Martin Truex Jr. posted the fastest speed of the third round of qualifying at Pocono on Friday to grab the top starting position for Sunday's race.
His lap of 179.244 MPH beat out Carl Edwards' lap of 178.873 MPH as Edwards will start second. Denny Hamlin, another driver from Joe Gibbs Racing (Truex's Furniture Row Racing has a technical alliance with Joe Gibbs Racing) was fourth. Paul Menard qualified third and Ryan Newman was fifth.
Truex won the first race at Pocono last year, his only win of 2015 before making it to the final round of the Chase. Friday's pole is also his third of the season; he qualified first at Kansas at Charlotte, where he dominated and won in May.
Jeff Gordon says 'loosely' he'll 'be here as long as they need me'Nick Bromberg at From The Marbles 1 day ago
Jeff Gordon left the possibility open that he could fill in for Dale Earnhardt Jr. for more than two races if Hendrick Motorsports continues to need a substitute driver for the No. 88 car.
Junior is missing his third race Sunday because of concussion-like symptoms and said earlier in the week he would head to doctors after the Pocono race for progress update. When HMS said Gordon would fill in at Indianapolis last week, it also said Gordon would be the team's driver at Pocono.
I tell you after going through what I went through at Indy I have a much greater appreciation for [New Hampshire fill-in driver Alex Bowman] because that was one of the toughest things I ever did. Not just getting in the race car after eight months, but trying to fill-in for Dale Earnhardt, Jr. knowing the kind of attention that it gets. My heart was beating out of my chest because of the pressure and the eyes that were on you as much as just not being in the car … I will be here as long as they need me. I say that very loosely."

Happy Hour: Your responses to Indy's race attendance and moreNick Bromberg at From The Marbles 2 days ago
It's time for Happy Hour. As always, tweet us your thoughts or shoot us an email at email@example.com if you want to participate.
A couple housekeeping notes before we get to your feedback from what we wrote about attendance at Indianapolis on Sunday.
NASCAR said Thursday that it's going to run the lower downforce 2017 rules preview at Michigan in August. The move makes sense given that the lower downforce rules were in effect at Michigan earlier this year. There's no point in making teams run two different rules configurations at the same track.
It's also making some safety improvements when it comes to the area around a driver's feet to protect the lower extremities. In hard front-impact crashes, bodywork and pedals, etc can be forced towards the driver's body (how Kyle Busch suffered his injuries in 2015). With some reinforcements and rules changes, NASCAR hopes to do what it can to prevent other drivers from suffering lower body injuries in vicious accidents.
Now on to your emails and tweets.
The Chase is also not going anywhere.
My take? The ignorant fan base is destroying the sport. – Lorraine
Anyone agree with Lorraine?

NASCAR pushes back numerous race start times in 2017
If you like your racing later in the day, you're going to be happy to see the 2017 NASCAR schedule.
NASCAR released the start times of Sprint Cup Series races on Wednesday and many races, including the Daytona 500, will start an hour or so later than they do in 2016. The Daytona 500, on Feb. 26, will have a start time of 2 p.m. ET. The green flag for the 2016 500 was just after 1 p.m.
Sunset in Daytona on Feb. 26 is at 6:22 ET, so it's unlikely the race will end under darkness without a delay or a bunch of cautions.
The answer for the later start times is simple. So simple that NASCAR itself was even willing to mention it. More people watch television later in the day, so the goal is to improve television ratings, which have seen declines in recent years.
Here's the start times of all the races in 2017. NBC only has one race that starts at 1 p.m. ET and that's the fall Martinsville race. If the half-mile track had lights, you can bet it would start later. 17 races had their times pushed back.

Target leaving IndyCar and Chip Ganassi Racing after 2016
The most recognizable IndyCar sponsorship is ending at the end of the year.
Per the AP, Target will not return to Chip Ganassi Racing after the conclusion of the 2016 season. The company and team have had a sponsorship relationship for 27 years. The company has a new chairman and is looking at its sponsorship agreements per the report.
"It was a really difficult decision that we made — we've been with Chip Ganassi Racing for 27 years and we are ridiculously proud of the success," [senior vice president Scott] Nygaard said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. "But the Target brand is about being fresh and new, so we felt like this was the time to make the difficult decision and expand our sports marketing platform."
Nygaard also apparently didn't give any hints about the company's Sprint Cup Series sponsorship of Kyle Larson, which could mean some bad news at the end of next season for Ganassi's No. 42 team.
About the NASCAR sponsorship, Nygaard said only that Target is excited for the 2017 season with Larson. Target's contract with Ganassi runs through next year.
Kevin Harvick's crew chief suspended for lug nut violation
Kevin Harvick's crew chief Rodney Childers has been suspended for a race for a lug nut violation at Indianapolis on Sunday.
NASCAR announced the penalty on Wednesday in yet another example of the incongruity of some NASCAR rules. Childers, as has become standard since NASCAR changed its rules and penalties regarding lug nut violations in April, was suspended for a race after NASCAR found not all 20 lug nuts (five per wheel) were tight after the Brickyard 400.
At the race prior (New Hampshire), Matt Kenseth's car failed post-race inspection. Kenseth won the race. Yet NASCAR simply penalized Kenseth 15 points and fined crew chief Jason Ratcliff, who was not suspended.
Childers noted that on Twitter after the penalty was announced. He's been Harvick's crew chief since the driver joined Stewart-Haas Racing from Richard Childress Racing in 2014 and the two won the championship that season.

Watch the in-car camera from Brad Keselowski's head-on testing crash (Video)Nick Bromberg at From The Marbles 4 days ago
Brad Keselowski was evaluated and released from the Watkins Glen care center after a nasty wreck during testing on Tuesday.
Keselowski hit the wall head on in turn 1, which is a downhill 90-degree right-hand turn after a long straightaway. Keselowski posted the onboard footage from his car, and according to the telemetry, he was going almost 100 MPH at the time of impact.
I'm ok! pic.twitter.com/Cu9yPYQnFG

This is what Keselowski's car looked like from the outside after the crash. Thank goodness for that foam lining the steel barriers outside of the corner. He said he had a brake failure heading into the turn.

Reports: Bernie Ecclestone's mother-in-law kidnapped in BrazilNick Bromberg at From The Marbles 4 days ago
Formula 1 CEO Bernie Ecclestone's eventful life has taken a scary turn.
According to reports, Ecclestone's mother-in-law was kidnapped in Brazil. Per Veja, the kidnappers of 67-year-old Aparecida Schunck are requesting a ransom of more than $36 million. If paid, it would be the largest known ransom payment in Brazil.
Schunck, the mother of Ecclestone's 38-year-old wife Fabiana Flosi, was reportedly kidnapped from her home in Sao Paulo. The kidnappers have also reportedly requested the ransom be paid in pounds sterling and divided into four bags.
Ecclestone, 85, met Flosi when she was working for the Brazilian Grand Prix. He then divorced his wife at the time, Slavica Radic, in 2009 and married Flosi in 2012. Per Eurosport and the BBC,Ecclestone has not commented regarding the kidnapping reports.
As the head of Formula 1, Ecclestone's worth is estimated to be nearly $4 billion. He was robbed in 2010 while he was with Flosi outside of his London office and thieves took over $300,000 worth of jewelry.

Migraines & Headaches Health Center
Understanding Migraine -- the Basics
In this article
What Are Migraines?
Migraines are a type of headache that cause severe, throbbing pain, often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light (photophobia) or sound (phonophobia). Migraine headaches generally last between four and 72 hours. Many people experience certain symptoms prior to the onset of the head pain. Symptoms that precede and herald an upcoming headache are referred to as an "aura," and usually last under an hour.
Symptoms of an aura include:
Recommended Related to Migraines/Headaches
The first step to preventing migraines is to avoid triggers. These often include: Stress Smoking High blood pressure Hormonal birth control pills Exercise Bending over High altitude Dehydration Low blood sugar Excessive heat Although dietary triggers - such as caffeine, alcohol, and artificial sweeteners -- can cause other types of migraines; they seem less likely to trigger ocular migraines. Medications can...
Read the Ocular Migraine Prevention article > >
- Changes in your vision (even brief blindness)
- Blind spots in your visual field
- The appearance of flashing light or other odd configurations of light before your eyes
- Double vision
- Dizziness
- A sensation that the room is spinning around you
- Difficulty with balance and walking
- An increased sensitivity to odors
- A numb or tingly feeling in your face, neck, head, or arms
You are most likely to begin developing migraine headaches between age 10 and 40, and your risk for having migraine headaches is three times greater if you're a woman. Many women find that their migraines improve or disappear altogether after age 50.
What Are the Causes of Migraines?
Research has not completely explained how migraine headaches develop. People who suffer from migraines have brain cells that seem to be overly sensitive to stimulation. Stimulation that has no effect on others -- such as intense emotion, overexertion, foods, odors, or sounds -- sets off a series of events in the brain of migraine sufferers that result in blood vessels first narrowing (constricting) and then widening (dilating). Chemicals are released which cause inflammation and pain.
The tendency to develop migraine headaches appears to be hereditary. In fact, more than 50% of people who get migraines have other family members who also suffer from migraines.
Migraine triggers can include:
- Stress
- Hunger (low blood sugar or hypoglycemia)
- Disturbed sleep
- Alcohol, particularly red wine
- Aged cheeses
- Meats containing nitrates and/or nitrites (deli-type meats such as pepperoni, salami, sausages, lunch meats, and hot dogs)
- Foods containing monosodium glutamate (found in certain seasonings, baking mixes, bouillon, stuffing mixes, Chinese food, frozen foods, processed meats, prepared soups, and condiments)
- Many different types of medications, especially birth control pills or estrogen-replacement therapy
Migraine headaches are also common just before the start of each menstrual period, leading researchers to suspect that a lack of estrogen may lead to the development of migraines in women. Migraines often lessen during the early part of pregnancy, perhaps due to increased estrogen. Some women, however, continue to have problems with migraine throughout their pregnancy.

@ Motley Fool
I guessing they will pump this baby over $180 today.
I think a short @ 178 is good....just missed it earlier by 23 cents...watch after lunch when the criminals return. Massive insider selling......
In and out of trading range: 160-175, if you can do 4-5% gain each trip, you will be. Unless, it breaks out the range on good/bad news.
Take care,
I set a short at $178 after hour last night but it did not get fill. I should have set it at $177. I could made $5/share today. Damn it.
I was thinking to short it BIDU yesterday too. Oh well.
It should see $178 today after lunch. Shorts keep shorting, Wall Street criminals keep squeezing them. More insiders sold yesterday. Insiders are bailing out, but retail keeps buying.

Soak the Rich
Too much rain, few protesters and about 12 angry Manichaeans.
TAMPA, Fla.-- "Really hard to notice the RNC protesters if you're not running around trying to find them," Slate's Dave Weigel tweeted early yesterday afternoon. "V far from convention, other events."
The convention's start was delayed a day, and so was the late-afternoon party in honor of Grover Norquist that we'd planned to attend. This seemed like an excellent time to check out the protesters, such as they were. So we sent Weigel a direct message asking where he found them. He didn't reply. We guess he wanted an exclusive.
Enlisting Twitter as a reporting tool, we asked our 16,000 followers (in case you're not among them, we're @jamestaranto) and quickly came up with 2101 W. Main St., site of "Occupy Tampa." After lunch we rode out there and found a pitiful little encampment on a lot so small that Zuccotti is Yellowstone by comparison. OT propaganda calls the site "Voice of Freedom Park," but the map doesn't show a park there.
It turns out the site is privately owned, by "adult nightclub owner Joe Redner," as the Tampa Tribune euphemistically put it in June. It's in a very downscale neighborhood--"You don't want to hang around here," our driver told us as we pondered whether to get out and have a closer look--but that doesn't mean it's any more welcome:
Residents and merchants here have grown weary of the Occupy Tampa movement's 6-month presence in their midst, and some of them aim to take action.
On Thursday they plan to take a petition to the Tampa City Council. It maintains that the movement has turned a privately owned park on Main Street into an impromptu squatters' village that is unsightly and, at times, unruly. . . . It has filled with pup tents, and has become an eyesore that is unclean, disorderly and unsafe due to people using drugs and drinking alcohol, the residents say.
Redner said he was aware of recent complaints, but had no plans to ask Occupy Tampa to leave his property. . . . "I have heard no credible complaints," he said Friday.
What we have here, then, is a dispute between a rich man asserting his right to use his property in any way he sees fit and the residents of a lower- to lower-middle-class community who are suffering the externalities of his unregulated actions. The Occupy clowns, natch, are on the side of the rich guy.
The roughness of the neighborhood did not deter us from getting out to explore the encampment, but the darkness of the sky did. It had been raining on and off all day, and we didn't want to get caught in a downpour. Occupy Tampa may have been worth seeing, but it definitely wasn't worth getting wet to see. So we asked the driver to take us to the convention, figuring out we'd at least check out the preparations and see if we ran into anyone interesting.
A major-party national political convention in a presidential year is one of the hardest events in America to get into. We refer here to the physical process of transporting one's body from outside into the convention site. As at other events featuring the president, the vice president or a major party's nominee for one or both of those positions, security is provided by the Secret Service. That means it's even more rigorous (though also more cheerful and professional) than security at an American airport.
Some items that you can bring on a plane are banned from the convention site--most notably, as we shall see, umbrellas. Streets are blocked off to create narrow, serpentine, blocks-long pathways for ingress and egress.
We were the driver's first passenger to the convention site, so he didn't yet know how to get to the closest drop-off point. As a result we had to walk a few extra blocks. Normally we'd have been grateful for the exercise but, as we mentioned, it was threatening to rain. It made good on the threat shortly after the car left. There was nowhere to take shelter, so we pressed ahead for several blocks.
Finally we ducked into a covered area near a big building, where another guy was also waiting out the downpour. He turned out to be Peter Shatner--no relation to Sen. Mark Kirk of Illinois, but the son of the man who played another Kirk in the original "Star Trek."
We waited till the worst of the rain had passed, but were already drenched. We had the foresight to wear a hat (we have the hat to this day) but lacked other accoutrements such as a raincoat, galoshes and an umbrella. Actually, we brought an umbrella to Tampa, but we left it at our hotel, mindful of the ban. We now see that WTSP-TV reported last week there would be free umbrellas for visitors, but we didn't see them. Anyway, the umbrellas are supposed to be on the convention "campus," which we had only reached.
At length we made our way to the Tampa Convention Center. We arrived at The Wall Street Journal's workspace with relatively dry hair but otherwise saturated with water. We plopped down, removed our shoes, and sat in our wet clothes, waiting for them to dry. We began to think it was unwise ever to leave the hotel.
Then a Google alert delivered some diverting news: We had upset the Manichaeans.
Last Thursday, you may recall, this column explored the parallels between contemporary left liberalism and Manichaeism, a gnostic doctrine. We cited an online essay according to which actual Manichaeaism "disappeared from the West in 10th century, and from China in the 14th century, and today it is extinct."
According to a post at WestmorelandTimes.com , Manichaeaism lives, and Manichaeans demand an apology for the pun in our headline, "Out of Mani, One":
Michael Tarendra, spokesman for the Manichaean headquarters in Iran, said, "This is not about politics. The Manichaean Religion is neither Democrat or Republican or any other party for that matter. Although our Faith is generally considered conservative, it is neutral in regards to political parties. Manichaeans do not put hope in Obama, Romney or any other political character in the world, no matter how utopian their ideals may be. This is about an author who has misused the name of our Holy Prophet Mani. Manichaeans worldwide can forgive the misapplication of the word Manichaean when journalists use it in a generic manner because we know they base their writing on the limited information that is available to them. We know that Obama and Romney are certainly not adherents of the Manichaean Faith. But when it comes to the use of our Prophet's name in such a manner, Manichaeans can not remain silent. To use our Prophet's name in what appears to be an attempt at humor is not only highly offensive but also extremely insulting to Manichaeans."
Tarendra adds that our pun was "the epitome of blasphemy."
Is this for real? WestmorelandTimes.com is named as if it were a local newspaper (Westmoreland County is just east of Pittsburgh), but the content is pretty random. The 1,500-word Manichaeism piece is unsigned and has no local angle. On the other hand, there does seem to be a Manichaean information infrastructure out there, including Manichaean.org, a Facebook page titled "Knushta d'Manavi (The Way of Mani)," and a Manichaean Twitter feed, @LampHerald, with 13 followers.
So apparently Manichaeans do exist. That said, we hope we won't give further offense if we observe there aren't many.
Our clothes now merely damp, we discarded our soaked socks, put on our still-wet shoes, and set off to check out the convention hall. Wandering around the convention center, all we could find were other media workspaces. The thought crystallized that the convention and the media were actually in two separate facilities (the former, we were eventually reminded, at the Tampa Bay Times Forum, just down the street). There being no urgency to visit the hall, we decided to leave it for another day to figure out the logistics of getting there. We headed back for the hotel.
As we walked through the convention site's outer perimeter--i.e., where cars are banned but pedestrians are permitted without security screening--we met a strikingly unattractive middle-aged couple carrying hand-lettered signs. Finally, protesters! His read EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL NOT JUST SOME. We inferred that he knew our work and was angling for a mention under News of the Tautological.
We stopped at Wal-Mart to pick up an extra pair of shoes, the waterlogged pair being the only dress shoes we'd bothered to pack. A pair of black loafers set us back $19. The brand name: Faded Glory. They were comfortable and dry enough that when we put them on later, there was no mistaking that experience that the Germans call Shoddenfreude.
Umbrella in hand, we headed for a party to partake in the great democratic tradition known as the open bar. A Republican woman stood on stage and gave a pep talk to the attendees. She acknowledged that President Obama is "likable" but asserted her confidence that the American people would soon learn that Mitt Romney is just as likable. "We're going to take a likable incompetent and replace him with a likable competent person," she said.
We felt inspirited. Must've been the vodka.

SAN ANTONIO (AP) - Pleasanton police are defending their actions in the arrest of a black businessman based on a tip that he might be related to Jeremiah Engleton, a black man who fatally shot three law officers.
Keith Gordon, the man arrested Saturday, was an out-of-towner who was unrelated to the gunman.
Engleton shot and killed two sheriff's deputies and a Department of Public Safety trooper and wounded two other officers Oct. 12 after luring them to his trailer home in Pleasanton with a bogus 911 call.
Pleasanton is about 30 miles south of San Antonio.
Gordon, a general contractor from San Antonio, was arrested when police found an unloaded 9 mm gun in his truck. His 15-year-old son, who was with him, was handcuffed and read his rights before being released.
A report that Gordon had made unflattering comments about law-enforcement officials and a tip that Gordon and his son might be Engleton's brothers - which later proved false - were reasons enough for police to swarm, Pleasanton Police Chief Keith Blair said.
"The report was that they were down there, and they were discussing the funeral and the officers attending the funeral apparently in a derogatory way of some sort," Blair was quoted as saying in Monday's San Antonio Express-News.
The police chief called it "regrettable" that Gordon "was caught up in this" but noted Gordon was carrying a handgun.
Blair denied the arrest was because of Gordon's race, saying, "This tragedy has brought people of all races closer together."
Shortly after the Atascosa County Sheriff's office got the call around 11 a.m. Saturday, officers from the Pleasanton Police Department, the DPS, the Texas Rangers and the sheriff's office descended on the restaurant where Gordon and his son had just finished breakfast.
Police blocked Gordon from backing out of the restaurant parking lot, ordered him and his son from their 1997 Ford pickup and immediately handcuffed both of them without asking questions.
On those facts, Blair and Gordon agree.
At home Sunday, Gordon dismissed the police explanation for the decision to arrest him.
"They criminalized us because we were blacks and their officers were killed by a black," he said.
When Gordon opened his door, officers saw a police baton in the side pocket, giving them legal grounds to search the truck, where they found the unloaded pistol behind the seat, Blair said.
"If it had been two Anglo individuals, we would have responded in the same way," he said.

France needs an extra 6.0 billion euros in revenues next year, the budget minister said on Monday, and the European Central Bank said it had to act fast to cut spending and retain credibility after slashing the 2013 growth forecast.
The French government recently acknowledged that its forecast for 0.8-percent growth this year was out of reach, meaning its budget planning to reach the European Union deficit ceiling of 3.0 percent of output was no longer sufficient.
Budget Minister Jerome Cahuzac told the private Europe 1 radio station that France's "budgetary situation is such that we have to find six billion euros in extra receipts."
But he did not specify how this would be achieved saying taxes "are already very high in France."
Separately, Finance Minister Pierre Moscovici said "in 2014, with a delay of one year, we must achieve three percent."
Speaking to journalists during a visit to London, Moscovici said "the 2014 budget must drafted this way."
French ministries have been informed how much to cut spending in order for the government to generate 2.0 billion euros ($2.6 billion) in savings this year.
"Economies in public spending are inevitable," Cahuzac said. "We have started to do it, we will continue to do it," he added.
Benoit Coeure, a Frenchman who sits on the managing board of the European Central Bank, said on Monday that Paris had to take strong action to convince its European Union partners that it was serious about keeping to the EU's deficit norms.
French President Francois Hollande has rejected undertaking massive additional austerity measures, however, arguing they would only slow growth and further aggravate the country's finances.
"As for credibility on the short-term, France must absolutely respect its commitment to cut the structural deficit," Coeure told financial daily Les Echos.
"On the medium-term it has to take quick and concrete decisions to achieve spending cuts so that France reassures its European partners," he said.
Coeure said that slashing expenditure was the best way out for France.
The head of the Bundesbank, Jens Weidmann, also urged France to keep cutting the deficit, although he acknowledged it is difficult when in a context of weak growth.
However Weidmann, who sits on the ECB's rate-setting Governing Council, said that Europe finds itself in a situation where markets have little credibility in its budgetary rules.
In such a context "it is particularly important that eurozone heavyweights send clear signals that boost the credibility of budgetary rules and the agreements at the heart of the economic and monetary union as well as the credibility of their own budgetary consolidation startegy," he said in a speech to students at the HEC business school outside Paris.
France's public accounts court, which audits government spending and provides policy advice, has also urged the government to focus on spending cuts.
On Saturday, Hollande underscored the need for "economies in all budgets" of the state organs to allow for a balanced economy in 2017, saying that so far his government had put two thirds of the effort of budget correction on increased taxes but now the emphasis would have to switch to expenditure.
The European Commission has indicated that it may give France some slack in achieving the deficit target, and the IMF has recently warned EU countries that cutting deficits too fast was harming growth.

Little Fockers
Greg Focker (Ben Stiller) has finally begun to earn the respect of his ex-CIA father-in-law, Jack Byrnes (Robert De Niro) but one important test still lies ahead: will Greg prove that he has what it takes to be the family's next "Godfocker" … or will the circle of trust be broken for good? Returning co-stars Owen Wilson, Blythe Danner, Teri Polo, Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand are joined by newcomers Jessica Alba, Laura Dern and Harvey Keitel in this hysterical family affair.Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro return as the comic duo of a hapless, eager-to-please son-in-law and an overbearing father-in-law in Little Fockers. Despite the title, there's not much of the kids in this sequel; like Meet the Parents and Meet the Fockers, Little Fockers is all about the tension-fraught relationship between crusty ex-CIA agent Jack Byrnes (De Niro) and male nurse Greg Focker (Stiller). This time, Jack has decided that Greg just might have what it takes to replace him as the protector and guid

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
Many years ago I found myself young and pregnant on the door steps of this shelter. Rev. Jenkins helped me get the paperwork I needed to get food stamps and start looking for a job. However, because I was pregnant no one wanted to hire me. Rev. Jenkins took me under his wings and had me assist with work that needed to be done at the shelter and church. I didn't feel useless anymore. I helped type letters, assisted with a fundraiser and began to feel like I was needed. As the years have pasted, 19 to be exact, Rev. Jenkins will always have a special place in my heart and in my memories. I don't know where I would be today without him & I Thank God that he lead me to Rev. Jenkins door.

Just tested it. It works okay for me on 3.0.5, in spite of this information:
Requires WordPress Version: 2.2.2 or higher
Compatible up to: 2.9.2
Last Updated: 2010-4-8
this still works for me, but given that the dev is MIA, viper's quick tags does the same job.

Bejarano, Hollendorfer team to score stakes win
INGLEWOOD, Calif. -- Hall of Fame trainer Jerry Hollendorfer and jockey Rafael Bejarano teamed to win the $150,000 Wilshire Handicap on Sunday at Betfair Hollywood Park, capping an opening weekend in which they each won four stakes races in 24 hours.
They collaborated for three of their wins. Halo Dolly defeated 14-1 long shot Long Face by 1½ lengths in the Wilshire. On Saturday, Hollendorfer and Bejarano combined to win the Melair and Tiznow stakes during California Gold Rush day.
Halo Dolly ran a mile on the turf in 1:34.18 and paid $8, $4.60 and $3.20.
"I had a good position from the beginning," said Bejarano, who had three other wins Sunday. "All I had to do is follow the speed. This was my first time riding her and I was comfortable the whole race. When I came to the stretch I just let her go. I didn't really have to ask her too much, just a couple of taps on the shoulder."
Bejarano also won four races on Friday, and he is closing in on 3,000 wins.
Long Face returned $11.80 and $5, while Moone's My Name was another half-length back in third and paid $2.40 to show.
Halo Dolly, co-owned by Hollendorfer, has 15 career wins in 29 starts and earnings of $752,786.
