mama to a sweet girl , & 4 silly boys
The reason I wanted the specific drying rack is that we are trying to not buying things from stores like Walmart/Target and trying to only make new purchases that are fair trade and long lasting. I suppose I could just be cheap this one time and go to Target and buy a second drying rack, but the one they have is really not a quality item. Its really flimsy after using it just a few times. DH and I are still deciding whether we'll buy one right now or not. A retractible clothesline inside wouldn't really work because we put our drying rack out on a deck when its nice and inside when its raining.
Do you have a small hardware store near where you live? Ace, Hardware Hank, or the like? We have a mom and pop style hardware store, you know the kind where you can buy just one nail if you need to? And last year I got a nice wooden drying rack there for 40 bucks. They keep one or two of items like that in the basement, so if you don't see one ask around.

I am thinking I will ask DH if he can try to make me one. Of course, he's the kind of guy that has tons of projects all laying around 75% finished I may just settle and go buy one from Target. Ah, such drama over a stupid drying rack!
I need help figuring out this whole cable/internet/phone thing...
We are cell only, we just went to cell only, no contract, but the phones were expencive, the service is great, and it's unlimited everything. We want to keep it. We currently have cable TV & cable internet. When I called to JUST get the internet, it would take away our multi service discount, and we would have ended up paying $5 less per month to get rid of our cable. It just wasn't worth it for $5 a month.
We are moving this month, and will be able to get cable TV and Internet for $59.99 per month guaranteed until 2010. If we skip the cable and go back to dialup, we will have to get a landline in addition to our cell phones, which will be at least $30 a month, plus dialup which is another $10 at least. So we would be paying $20 less to have crappy internet and nothing to watch on TV.
I'm trying to justify it in my head, and a $20 savings just seems like such a tiny amount to lose all of that. I want to be frugal, but to be honest, I like my TV, and my fast internet, and I'm sure I could squeeze $20 somewhere else. Any thoughts?
My success:
dh and I had planned a breakfast at the little bakery across from where dd1's swim lessons are. He dropped her off and I met him there. When he got there I gave him all the cash in my wallet (3 bucks!) and he spent it on his breakfast. err spent some of it, pocketed the rest. Anyhow, when I got to work I walked right by the diet coke machine and thought "hey, i could get a coke." instinctively I reached for my wallet and found no cash. I normally would walk down where I could use my debit card. today: walked right to the water fountain.

I think the CD is a self-produced one; it includes any of 1952 Shipley's output on the Kingsport label: the original « Milk Bucket Boogie« , « Catfish Boogie » and « Hillbilly Jive With A Boogie Beat » – all infectious rhythm-rural hillbilly boogies; along with recent offerings (remaining tracks) by Shipley, very highly interesting Country bop.

We are open Monday through Thursday from 10am-4pm, and from 6pm-12am. We are also open on Sunday, from 6pm-12am.
Please make appointments online by clicking on the "Sign Up for a Session" button on the Farnham Writers' Center home page.
We are open Monday through Thursday from 10am-4pm, and from 6pm-12am. We are also open on Sunday, from 6pm-12am.
Please make appointments online by clicking on the "Sign Up for a Session" button on the Farnham Writers' Center home page.
Starting at 11:59pm this Wednesday night, the Farnham Writers' Center will be open continuously until Friday at 4pm. In addition to offering tutoring through the night, the FWC will have snacks and beverages for tutees. Since we CLOSE FOR THE YEAR this Friday, May 9th, this is THE LAST CHANCE for you to get your papers looked over by one of our tutors. Make sure to sign up for a session now at colby.mywconline.com and choose "WATC Spring 2014" from the "choose schedule" dropdown menu.
The Farnham Writers' Center announces a new tutoring service that we will be kicking off in conjunction with the Colby Liberal Arts Symposium: Oral Presentation Tutoring. Designed for individual or group presentations, each tutoring session will last 30 minutes and will be conducted by a three or four tutor panel. In addition to offering video/audio recording (for aural revision), tutors will respond to your presentation on three levels, providing rich feedback as you begin to hone your presentation.
If there's one thing that we know, it's that our writing tutors rule. They do so many things (working late shifts, teaching sections of EN112, working with professors as Writing Fellows, supporting the center at Kennebec Valley Community College, running community writing events)…and that's just what they do as tutors! As students at Colby they do so much more, from running campus clubs, to conducting amazing research, to winning awards, to initiating new projects/initiatives, etc. … not to mention the other travel, jobs, and internships they do outside of school. You can see some of the things they do in their bios ("Meet the Staff" under appointments), but we decided that it was about time to acknowledge some of the neat things they (our current and past tutors) do in a Tutor Props post.
With the decreased number of students on campus during the JanPlan period, the Farnham Writers' Center will be going down to part-time operating hours (6-10pm) and instead offering "OnCall" services during the day. Students interested in signing up for a session should email FWC Coordinator Alexander Champoux.
Three tutors from the Farnham Writers' Center attended the National Conference on Peer Tutoring in Writing (NCPTW) Nov. 1-3 in Tampa, Florida, along with Director Paula Harrington and Coordinator Alexander Champoux. Olivia Biagetti '14, Justin Lutian '15, and Andy Kang '15 presented a panel titled "Negotiating Tutee Anxiety and the Identity Gap" with specific focuses on working with community college tutees, tutees of diverse sexualities, and tutor-tutees. In addition to presenting, the representatives of the FWC attended presentations from other colleges and universities on topics falling under the conference theme "Year of the Writer."
Looking to better serve the growing population of international and non-native speaking students at Colby College, the FWC has hired a new part-time Multilingual Specialist, Roger Jack. He is also an ESL teacher in the Auburn school system, and has his M.Ed. in ESL Literacy from the University of Maine Orono. Interested students can sign up using the "Roger Jack" schedule on WCOnline, or by clicking on the button on the FWC homepage.
There are no upcoming events.
Check out our parent site "The Colby Writing Program" for more faculty and student writing resources.

Andy Murray's win at the US Open ended a 76-year men's Grand Slam wait, while Bradley Wiggins's Tour de France victory and Mo Farah's Olympic distance double were firsts for Britain.
Add historic performances from the dressage and showjumping teams at the Olympics and you have a memorable summer where Britons ended long-standing sporting droughts for their country.
But what other sporting monkeys does Britain need to get off its back, and what are our chances of claiming those elusive major wins?
Men's World Cup (last win in 1966)
The last (and only) British men's team to win the World Cup was England in 1966, as if we needed reminding. Before that, Wales and Northern Ireland both made the quarter-finals in 1958, with the Northern Irish reaching the 'second group stage' (also the last eight) in 1982. Scotland have never got out of the group stage. Post '66, England have made the quarters four times, five if you include '82. That appears to be our level, with the football cultures of Brazil, Argentina and new kings Spain boasting superior technique, while Germany and Italy have smarter tactics and organisation (and probably technique too). It's not all doom and gloom — tagged serial chokers, Spain won their first World Cup just two years ago, and have sandwiched that with back-to-back Euros triumphs. Our women, meanwhile, won the 1985 and 1988 World Cups, before FIFA got involved and continued their anti-English conspiracy (only kidding). Hurrah for girls!
What are Britain's chances of breaking the hoodoo?
Not great, but not beyond us. It all rests on England though as small talent pools and weak domestic leagues have rendered the other Home Nations also-rans at qualification. The Three Lions flopped at the last World Cup, with much of their failure attributed to extreme pressure placed on players by fans and media. However, there is a clear technical deficit due to a kick-and-rush culture, highlighted when lowered expectations helped England at the last Euros, only to be outplayed by Italy in the quarters. Until this long-term problem in development is solved, a win is unlikely, although the FA have started rectifying the issue with a new technical program.
Davis Cup (last win in 1936)
There are no two ways about it — Andy Murray is a freak. No other British male can hold a candle to the Scot, who is comfortably the best player from these isles in the post-war era. It is fitting that the last Grand Slam singles win by a British man came in 1936: Fred Perry's boys also won our ninth and last team event that year. Since then our best finish was second in 1978, with the United States and Australia picking up most post-war titles and Spain leading the way in recent years.
Chances that Murray leads us to glory?
Slim in the long-term, and none right now, as we are in the second division. It was worse a few years back though — captain Leon Smith masterminded promotion from the third tier and almost reached the top group but for a play-off defeat to Belgium. Tennis is an individual sport, but the Davis Cup is a team game and Murray cannot carry a nation whose other top players lie outside the top 100. Murray is an exception, not the rule, with Britain incapable of creating more than one decent pro per generation in recent decades — Greg Rusedski was born and trained in Canada. Spain and Serbia, who boast a Grand Slam winner apiece and a host of solid pros, should dominate for a while to come, with Russia, France and the US all sniffing around.
World Cup (last win 1972)
Given so few nations play rugby league to a good level, it seems almost inexcusable that Britain has not won a World Cup in this sport in 40 years. However, there is a reason for this — it is effectively the national sport in Australia, who have won six of the subsequent seven trophies, while rugby union's entry to the professional ranks signalled a haemorrhaging of British talent to the more popular code of the oval ball.
British chances?
Despite Australian dominance and New Zealand's emergence after winning in 2008, Britain does have a chance in the future, but it will likely involve some cricket-style ANZAC-poaching. A sturdy professional system and continued popularity in the north of England mean a strong league culture still exists, while many southern hemisphere players mimic their compatriots in other fields by plying their trade in the UK. We are still some way behind the Aussies and Kiwis, while the decision to break GB into its component nations will inevitably reduce the talent pool. As such, England will be in the hunt to reach the latter stages of future World Cups, with victory only a win or two away from the current squad. It will be tough for the others.
Riders' championship (1977); Grand Prix race (1981)
Can a Briton win a MotoGP race?
Yes. While many Superbike stars have failed to master the smaller bikes, Cal Crutchlow has shown great promise after switching categories last season and is a tip for the top. The waning of Valentino Rossi's talents have made for a more open championship, with 2011 champion Casey Stoner lagging well behind Spain's Jorge Lorenzo and Dani Pedrosa, none of whom seem to be among the all-time greats. Despite suffering a broken ankle in June, Crutchlow is fifth in the rider standings and has six more races this season, having made the podium in his last race.
And the championship?
Not this year. A much tougher proposition for Crutchlow than a race win, but provided he gets a good machine he could be in with a chance in future seasons.
Men's All-England Open Championship (1939)
The annual English Open badminton event was dominated by English and Irish men until it was halted for the Second World War. Since play resumed in 1947 Britain has not even had a finalist. It has been dominated by South East Asian athletes, mostly Chinese, Indonesian and Malaysian, with Danes and Indians putting in decent showings. That has reflected the nature of the men's sport — the male doubles boasts a similar drought and similar Asian dominance — although Britain has had women's singles and doubles champions up to 1981, while the mixed doubles (2005) saw our most recent badminton success thanks to the famous duo of Gail Emms and Nathan Robertson.
Can Britain break the Chinese spell?
Almost certainly not — badminton is following table tennis in becoming an Asian-dominated sport, with clubs and participation at record highs in Chinese territories. Small-scale racquet sports are national pastimes, much like golf on the British Isles, and it shows no sign of changing.
One Day International World Cup
Probably the most surprising British drought, considering England have won numerous Ashes and are ranked number one in the ODI format after drawing the latest series with South Africa. Why have we not won an ODI World Cup? Well, Australia are historically just better at one-day cricket than anyone else, while the Asian subcontinent sides also enjoy smashing it about, not to mention toying with English batsmen on their funny wickets. England have traditionally focused on Test cricket, although the emergence of the spectator-friendly (and cash-rich) T20 format of the game has changed that somewhat — England won that World Cup event two years ago, and converted that form to the one-day game. Best finishes have been runners-up in 1979, 1987 and 1992.
Can our boys bring home the bacon?
Not on current form, but the talent certainly exists provided the team is suitably shaken-up following the debacle of Kevin Pietersen and Andrew Strauss. There is a touch of randomness about the one-day format, and England do not appear to take it as seriously as Test or the highly marketable T20 versions, but if they get their house in order they have as good a chance as any for the 2015 World Cup and the 2019 edition, which will be hosted by England and Wales (who have a combined cricket board). Scotland have no chance, alas.
America's Cup
Britain is an island nation with a history of fantastic sailors, most recently shown at the last Olympics, and of course the all-time great Ben Ainslie (more on him later). The America's Cup, however, is more about money than match racing. This may seem like a controversial statement, but — unlike sailing in its purest form — it is a yachting event, with huge multi-million dollar boats and multinational teams that often feature playboy financiers and the odd celeb alongside hardened sportsmen and women. Qualification is also difficult — the defending champions race against a sole challenger, which is decided after the gruelling Louis Vuitton Cup of qualifying races. There have been British sailors aboard winning boats, and a few unsuccessful British challenger projects, but this event has been dominated by Americans since they won the opening edition in the 19th century, with Swiss, Australian, Kiwi and Italian-financed boats also faring well.
Can Britain convert Olympic dominance to this event?
European Championships
No British men's side has ever won the Euros. Given it is widely-regarded as a tougher competition than the World Cup due to the lack of weaker teams from Oceania, Asia, North America and Africa, it's not hard to see why. England have flown the flag for Britain for the most part — Scotland have only qualified twice, going out in the group stages both times, while Wales and Northern Ireland have never made the finals. England's Euros record is similar to their World Cup record as, while they have never won it, they have reached the semi-finals twice, coming third in 1968 and 1996. This championship has been dominated by Germany and, more recently, Spain, while France, Italy, the Czechs and the former Soviet Union have put in good showings. As with the World Cup, the women have fared better, beaten finalists in 2009.
What are our chances?
Not as improbable as people would like to think: even though the standard of teams is higher than a World Cup, history suggests it is possible to cause an upset. The tournament has seen some shock victors in the past, most notably wildcards Denmark in 1992. A jobbing team with a solid defence and a few stars in good form can go on a magical run and, with some luck in the penalty shoot-outs, anything is possible. England are hampered by their failure to deal with pressure, congenital weakness at spot-kicks, and a general lack of skill, but Greece were far weaker and they did alright in 2004! The current Spain team shows no sign of weakening, as the academies of Barcelona and Real Madrid feed ready-made internationals into the senior set-up, but they are beatable, as even England have shown. Also, there are no Brazil or Argentina to worry about.
World Cup (men and women)
Much like football, the modern form of field hockey was developed in England yet Britain underachieve on a global scale. However, similar games have existed in other countries for millennia and — despite a hockey culture in certain schools and regions of the country — we have never been a consistent major force in the world game, partly because we compete as the four individual Home Nations. Our best finishes have been by England's men and women, who have come second and third respectively in 1986 and 2010. Those relative successes were amplified by United GB teams at subsequent Olympics, with Britain's men winning a shock gold at Seoul in 1988 and the women doing well to claim bronze in London. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are weak sides on their own, while England are currently semi-final contenders at best.

December: Make a Tree Box of House Parts
While ceiling-high evergreens might be the norm today, up until the late 19th century most Christmas trees fit tidily on a table. But the fact that they were small doesn't mean they couldn't make a big statement. Just check out our festive take, shown here. Set inside a box clad with tin ceiling tiles, and adorned with keyhole hardware and dollhouse doors and windows, this tree pays homage to the historic house in which it resides. To create your own version, simply pick out some architectural elements of your home you'd like to highlight.

As usually it would seem Newgrounds' resident Paragon of Techno is back in the saddle. It psyched me out at first with its similarities to Choaz Fantasy but it's got movements to it for starters and a really cool feel. It flows well and has a lot of melodic movement that set it apart from your other choaz pieces. That's perhaps what I like about it the most. So far my top three are Airflow, Survivor, and then Japan. Glad to see you're back in action!

How ridiculous. Duh! The presidents do get a salary and can use that for vacations. Besides look at the hundreds of vacations and time off that Bush took. I'd like to see you work under as much stress as the presidents and not take time off.

Too Funny Frank.
Just so I understand, Should College Transcripts and SS apps be required for everyone, or just Obama?
Do you want the same from Romney? If not, please explain the disconnect.
Lastly, can you tell me how much Taxpayer money Obama has spent on vacations?
Once you do that, can you then tell us the same figure for Bush, Clinton and Bush 1.
That would be helpful to determine if it is out of line with other presidents and if you really have a valid point.
I assume that you know, right?
I honestly don't know how much each spent, but, then I'm not sending in letters about it to a newspaper.

What if the returns show he deducted his Olympic time as a charitable deduction. Was his not taking a salary an earlier attempt to shield his offshore tax deals? Maybe he could lead the top one percenters to further reduced taxe rates if his tax methods are disclosed.

You don't really get the idea of equivelency. See Obama HAS released his
tax returns, Mitt only one year.
Obama HAS posted his birth certificate online and before that it was certified by the state of Hawaii- Mitt has not done that has he? No.
Mitt has not released HIS school records so why are you asking for Obama's when Mitt hasn't offered his up? Mitt allready has some catching up to do.
Catch up. We know a lot about Obama's school life. We know Romney was forcfully cutting off the hair of his classmate. The same classmate got kicked out of school later for smoking a cigarette but not Romney. Nothing happened to him for assaulting someone.

This is absurd. Will you demand any president, Bush, Reagan, etc., reimburse the government for protection and other things related to the office, including when they take a break. You want a different standard for Obama. And speaking of different standards, have you ever seen college applications, transcripts, and other things for any other leader? So why this for Obama? It is either desperation of his opponents, or it is racism. Probably both.

It looks like Bush is the "vacation king" having spent approximately 125
million dollars flying from the White House to his ranch in Air Force One.
Speaking of transparency I would really like Romney to release his water bills. They keep asking us to conserve water, and I got to thinking that Mitt must use a gigantic amount of water in his 4 or 5 homes! (Now that he has sold his 11 acre mega mansion in Park City, he may be down to only on 3 or 4 homes.) Since won't release his tax returns it's time for us to call for the release of his water bills!

What is absurd is that Democrats demand more from Romney than they demand from
Obama. How many years of tax returns has Obama released? How much truth has he
released about the real estate deal with Tony Rezko? Why did he tell us that
Bill Ayers was just an acquaintance?
As far as that goes, how did Harry Reid amass more than $10 million on a salary that is less than $200 a year? Where did Nancy Pelosi get her $58 million? How about Diana Feinstein? How did her net worth jump from $26 million in 2003 to $99 million in 2005?
If all the Democrats can do is point fingers and blame Bush, they're just proving that they are incapable of doing anything except "passing the buck".

Mike Richards,
President Obama released his tax returns from 2000 - 2011. That's documented, easy to find with a few search terms on google. If the DesNews would allow it, I'd post the URL, but they don't.
Mitt Romney's father released 12 years' returns when he ran for president.
Mitt Romney is the only presidential candidate in US history to have offshore bank accounts. I think we have a right to understand why.
When the other people you mention campaign for president, we can ask about their tax returns then, too.
Right now, the focus is appropriately on Romney and his unprecedented refusal to provide tax returns so voters can see if he's walking the walk, or just talking the talk.
His refusal to provide tax returns causes most Americans to suspect that he's hiding something.

When Pres. Obama goes on vacation they pay for their own living quarters. What
taxpayers pick up is the tab for the security that accompanies them, as with
every other President.
I think it is very important for every Pres. to get away from the "bubble" of Washington. I'm sure, too, they never truly get away from their job.
Now if we want to compare how many vacation days various Pres. have taken we could do that. (Reagan and George W. Bush hold the record for most number of days).
If we want to compare the costs and distances we could do that too--adjusting for inflation of course. But really, don't we have more important issues to focus on?

So thanks Mike,
You have shown me that Obama gives to charity. Quite a bit more than the national average of 2%. What's your point?
All you have been claiming and can claim is that supposidly republicans deduct on average more charitable giving on thier taxes. That hardly means they help the needy around them more than liberals. Giving money to a megachurch preacher that sells you the gospel of prosperity and bigotry is hardly charitable.
Most acts of true charity don't come with a receipt.

If you think that 2% or 5% is enough, then why would you support Obama's demand that the rich give 38% of their profits to the government so that the GOVERNMENT can give charity to the poor?
Obama has called for an end to the Bush tax cuts. That means that people like him will pay at least 5% MORE to the government than they are now paying. That means that unless they show more charity than they do know, charitable organizations will be hurt, which means that those organizations will have even less to give to the poor - which means that more people will have their hands out to Washington for assistance - which means that Obama will have to raise rates again!
Do you see the progression?
When Obama does what he's demanding that we do, he will give 50% or more to charity, after all, we're paying his rent. We're paying for his meals. We're paying for his transportation. It doesn't take $450,000 a year to clothe a family of four. He can open his wallet and show us what it means to care about the poor.

It is great to make that wonderful gesture to "donate" your salary when you make 250 million per year. That doesn't necessarily impress me. I will judge Romney on other matters. I can say that he does give a lot to his church, which does great work and he should be praised more for that. He has donated to other charitable efforts and should be praised for that. With President Obama, he takes vacations like all Presidents. This requires some amount of secret service protection and I guess some expense to the government. So what, other past presidents have been granted this same privilege. This is not an issue. I would be more impressed if he donated more to charity. Oh well. I guess he could donate his salary to the government or a charity but based on last year's term, he is one of the rare Presidents where the majority of his actual salary was being President.

When did you start taking your prenatal vitamins?
How much of a difference does it make to take them sooner rather than later?
During my last preganncy, I didn't start taking prenatals until my 7th BFP. I wanted to know for sure it was not all in my head.
This time around, I still don't know for sure as I am only 7dpo, but started taking them as soon as I suspected.
My last pregnancy ended in m/c. Kind of afraid not to take them ASAP now.
Thoughts? Opinions? Experiences?

I found another phishing site running today on a WordPress website. Wondered if other folks were having issues with Phishers hiding websites on their WordPress sites?
If you host a WordPress site and have had someone place a phishing site on your server, would you please send me an email?
Trying to see what they might have in common -- suspecting a misconfiguration of the webserver -- but just wanting to be thorough.

AbstractTools for extracting resources from the moon are needed to support future space missions. Of particular interest is the production of gases and metals for life support, propulsion, and in-space fabrication. The only practical source for these materials is the decomposition of lunar regolith. Described herein is an innovative plasma reduction technique for the production of gases and metal powders. This technique is characterized by its high temperatures and rapid quenching. During Phase 1, silicon, iron, and magnesium in crystalline form were produced using the plasma reduction technique. Based on the analysis of captured gas samples and the fact that metallic species were produced, oxygen was also evolved as a result of plasma processing. During Phase 2, the plasma techniques developed during Phase 1 will be optimized. Techniques to separate and collect pure oxygen from the regolith and the processing gases will be developed. Steps will be taken to reduce the power requirements needed for plasma reduction. Additional metals such as aluminum, titanium, and calcium will also be produced by varying processing parameters. Precise measurement of particle temperature and velocity will be performed and correlated with processing parameters and thermodynamic calculations so that these objectives can be met.

I am occasionally on an expensive Internet connection and I would like to know (at least approximately) how much data will be pushed to the remote in a
git push.
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
Actually, I think I like my comment enough to post it as an answer!
When you push, git creates a pack of all the necessary objects and uploads that to the remote. This means we're looking for a way to predict that pack size. Since the packs are compressed, that makes it very difficult to do anything based on diffs or object sizes; what we really want to do is just see how big that pack will be. It'd be nice if you could interrupt the push, just after it's constructed the pack, and decide to proceed based on the pack size, but I don't think that's possible. My best guess is to try to recreate the pack that would be pushed and inspect that.
A bundle file is basically a pack with header information (have a look at the source if you like). This means it's a convenient porcelain command that'll create a file with the size you care about. (Much easier than trying to use pack-objects manually.) Use something like this:
That'll give you a bundle containing everything needed to get to master, given that the remote has origin/master - exactly the same thing that should be pushed by
Just check the size of that created bundle; it should be nearly equivalent to what you'll end up pushing. This does mean that you'll end up having to create the pack twice (once with the bundle and once with the push), but unless this is a really big push which takes a long time to pack up, that shouldn't be a huge problem.
You can find out pretty much exactly by running a similar bit of Bash to what Git will run internally when it creates the pack file to push:
This should output the byte-count of the pack file Git would send. Broken down:
This is conditional on doing a

We surveyed all our curly haired friends and the results were unanimous: Miss Jessie's® detangling formula is the best of the best. Whether your hair is frizz-prone and curly, chemically processed, or just plain parched, it will soften your strands without weighing them down. Plus, it doubles as a leave-in treatment for those days you need an extra layer of hydration.
Expect your curly to de-frizz and separate and define curls after using. I am not sure if you can use this daily because it is VERY conditioning. Right now 3x a week works perfectly. I do have very fine hair, so I need to limit the amount of heavy conditioners. It is true though, Miss Jessie's product are the best on the market for curly hair. Even if ever other product has failed you, give it one more shot. So glad I got a Birchbox sample of this brand or I would missed out on some good hair days ;)4
My hair is curly but fairly low-maintenance, and I usually don't buy curly-specific conditioners. Some days when I use this product, my hair looks awesome - tight curls, lots of body, not a lot of frizz. However, I have never had a conditioner that feels less moisturizing in the shower. I usually comb my hair with a wide-tooth comb while conditioner is in my hair, and with this product the tangles are the worst I've ever dealt with. However, my hair does looks really nice some days, so that's why I didn't give it one star. But I won't be ordering it again - I want something that feels rich and moisturizing while I'm using it.2

ADHD in Children Health Center
One in 10 Virginia Elementary School Students Receives ADHD Treatment
Nov. 16, 1999 (New York) -- ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) appears to be reaching epidemic proportions in Virginia. A report published in a recent issue of the American Journal of Public Health delivers alarming news: in two Virginia cities, between 8% and 10% of children in grades two to five receive medication for ADHD at school.
"We found the rate of ADHD medication use in two school districts in Virginia was ... two to three times higher than national estimates of the disorder," Gretchen B. LeFever, PhD, who headed the reporting team, tells WebMD. "Although we can't generalize from these findings to what's going on across the country, the DEA [Drug Enforcement Agency] suggests there are regions within almost every state that look similar to our region in Virginia."
LeFever is with the center for pediatric research at Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters, affiliated with the Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk.
In the study, information was gathered during the 1995-1996 school year on almost 30,000 public school children in grades two to five in the two cities. One city was larger and poorer overall and had a higher percentage of black inhabitants. The health-related information was merged with 1990 U.S. Census information, which contained specific regional data. The researchers then looked through school records to identify those children taking medication for ADHD from a school nurse.
While the overall proportion of children taking ADHD medication was 8% to 10%, the percentage increased as children got older. By the fifth grade, almost 20% of boys were taking ADHD medication at school.
One of the most surprising findings, according to LeFever, is the high rate of medication use in the more affluent school districts, especially among children who were young for their grade. Almost 63% of these children in one city were being treated for ADHD. "This is an extraordinary figure. It suggests parents, health professionals, teachers, or some combination of those may have important misunderstandings," LeFever says, about what constitutes 'normal' inattention for grade-school children.
"It raises a lot of questions as to whether immaturity is being seen as a . . . disorder instead of part of the normal developmental process," LeFever tells WebMD.

Jason Robinson
Saxophonist and composer JASON ROBINSON returns to the Bay Area to reunite with long time musical collaborator and bassist Scott Walton in two new configurations featuring a stellar lineup. The first will showcase various Robinson compositions and will feature Darren Johnston (trumpet), Steve Adams (alto sax), Robinson (tenor sax), Walton (bass), and John Hanes (drums). The second configuration adds electronics pioneer Tim Perkis for a set of improvised explorations. A Californian by birth, Robinson spent his formative musical years in the Bay Area (1990s) and San Diego (2000s) before moving to western Massachusetts to teach at Amherst College. Now a part of New York's and Boston's creative music scenes, Robinson is excited to return to the Bay Area for an evening of exploratory music.
The music of American saxophonist and scholar JASON ROBINSON ("rugged and scintillating," New York Times) thrives in the fertile overlaps between improvisation and composition, acoustic music and electronics, tradition and experimentalism. Initially a devotee of post-1960s jazz and creative music, Robinson is celebrated for bringing together various historical directions in jazz–bebop, post-bop, the avant-garde–with an improvisatory and compositional sensibility drawn from and extending the languages of John Coltrane, Albert Ayler, Duke Ellington, Charles Mingus, and Lester Young. His musical interests, however, span far and wide. He is a critically acclaimed distinctive voice in a new generation of creative musicians in equal dialogue with jazz, popular music, experimental music, and electronic music. Robinson's primary group is his New York-based Janus Ensemble, which ranges in size from a quintet with reedist Marty Ehrlich, guitarist Liberty Ellman, bassist Drew Gress, and drummer George Schuller, to the full nine-piece version of the group with the addition of reedist JD Parran, trombonist and tubist Bill Lowe, tubist Marcus Rojas, and drummer Ches Smith. The group's latest release is Tiresian Symmetry (Cuneiform, 2012), which was supported by a tour of the US Northeast and Canada in February 2014, including appearances at the 25th season of the Magic Triangle Concert Series at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Casa del Popolo in Montreal, Roulette in Brooklyn, and elsewhere.
Robinson has released 14 albums as leader or co-leader and appeared on nearly 50 albums in total. He performs regularly as a soloist (acoustically and with electronics), with his group the Janus Ensemble, and in a variety of collaborative contexts. He has performed at festivals and prominent venues in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Panama, and throughout Europe and/or recorded with Peter Kowald, George Lewis, Anthony Davis, Amiri Baraka, Drew Gress, Rudresh Mahanthappa, Myra Melford, Nicole Mitchell, Marty Ehrlich, Eugene Chadbourne, Earl Howard, Toots and the Maytals, Groundation, Bertram Turetzky, Mark Dresser, John Russell, Roger Turner, Gerry Hemingway, Marco Eneidi, Lisle Ellis, Raphe Malik, JD Parran, Dana Reason, the La Jolla Symphony, SONOR (UCSD), and the San Francisco Mime Troupe, among others. As a scholar, Robinson's work investigates the relationship between improvised and popular musics, experimentalism, and cultural identity. He has published articles and reviews in Ethnomusicology, Jazz Perspectives, and Critical Studies in Improvisation/ Études critiques en improvisation. Robinson is an Assistant Professor of Music at Amherst College and holds a Ph.D. in Music from the University of California, San Diego.
STEVE ADAMS is active both as a composer and a performer on saxophones, flutes and electronics. Steve is best known as a member of the Rova Saxophone Quartet, with whom he has played for over twenty five years and released more than twenty five recordings. He has performed with Anthony Braxton, Sam Rivers, Dave Holland, Roscoe Mitchell, John Zorn, Steve Lacy, Fred Frith, Tin Hat Trio, Yo! Miles with Henry Kaiser and Wadada Leo Smith and Ted Nugent, as well as many other classical, jazz, rock, dance and theater groups. Steve has appeared on more than fifty recordings, and has five recordings as leader or co-leader on the 9 Winds and Clean Feed labels. His piece Cage (for John Cage) was performed at the 1993 Bang on a Can festival, and his piece The Gene Pool was commissioned in 1993 by Meet the Composer and performed at their festival "The Works" in Minneapolis in 2002. He performed Edmund Campion's Corail for saxophone and live electronics with the Berkeley Symphony and at the Ojai Music Festival, and was a member of the 25th Anniversary performance of Terry Riley's In C, which was released on New Albion. Steve also is a member of the electronics duo Hanes/Adams, the Vinny Golia Large Ensemble, Matt Small's Crushing Spiral Ensemble and the Bill Horvitz Band, as well as leading his own groups. His duo with Scott Walton has just released the CD Cookies for Cyrano on pfMENTUM. He received a California Arts Council Fellowship in 2000, and teaches at Mills College.
Since settling in San Francisco in 1997, Canada-born trumpeter, bandleader, composer, improvisor, vocalist, and songwriter DARREN JOHNSTON has composed for, collaborated with and recorded alongside an extremely diverse cross-section of world class artists. His interests rotate around composing instrumental music, writing songs, and performing all styles of jazz, experimental and purely improvised music, as well as traditional music of the Balkans, Greece, Macedonia, Turkey, and the Arab world. His primary ensemble as a leader, Broken Shadows, is an attempt to unify all of these interests into one truly unique style of roots/art/dance music that defies category. As a composer, he has received commissions to write for small jazz groups, big bands, string quartet, chamber ensembles, a multi-generational chorus utilizing body-percussion and choreography, and more. He has written for dance companies such as Axis Dance, Amy Seiwert's Imagery, Robert Moses' Kin, Liss Fain, and others, as well as for short films. He has performed and/or recorded with luminaries such as Fred Frith, ROVA Sax Quartet, Meredith Monk, Myra Melford, James Tenney, Ben Goldberg, Matt Wilson, Mark Dresser, Marshall Allen, Marcus Shelby, and others.
TIM PERKIS is a well-known figure in the worlds of improvised and electronic music. Over the course of decades he has played his unique computer-based electronic instruments with hundreds of musicians, including many of the leading players in free improvisation from Europe and the US. He is also a founding member of several electronic music ensembles, including FuzzyBunny, Splendor Generator and the legendary computer network band The Hub. Recordings of his music are available on the Artifact, Tzadik, New World and EMANEM labels, among others. His documentary film NOISY PEOPLE(2007) and NOISY PEOPLE podcasts (2015) are available at noisypeople.net.
SCOTT WALTON is a bassist and pianist whose music negotiates the terrain between jazz, free improvisation, and the classical avant-garde. He has recorded with Vinny Golia, Steve Adams, Myra Melford, Tim Perkis, Nels Cline, Anthony Davis, and Bobby Bradford, and has performed with George Lewis, Wadada Leo Smith, John Carter, JD Parran, and Al Cohn. Current projects include duos with Steve Adams, Tim Perkis, and Gilbert Isbin, the Michael Vllatkovich quartet, Jeff Gauthier's Goatet, the Bill Horvitz Sextet, and Alex Cline's Flower Garland Orchestra.
JOHN HANES has been playing drums in the Bay Area for over 30 years. From Diamonda Galas to Etta James, from Starbucks commercials to Werner Herzog's "Grizzly Man" soundtrack, from Oakland Opera Theater's production of Anthony Davis's "X, the Life and Times of Malcolm X" to industrial rockers Chrome, John has performed and recorded with a diverse array of artists across a broad spectrum of genres. Since 2000, John has entered the world of experimental music and free improvisation, playing in a number of bay area ensembles; and electronic music, performing on laptop solo as Organ of Qwerty and in Hanes/Adams, a duo with Rova Sax Quartet's Steve Adams.
Lorin Benedict: VOICES AND SUCH
An evening showcasing voices, plus one pianist. In the first set, vocalists LORIN BENEDICT and RON HEGLIN will improvise a few pieces together, and then pianist/composer JULIE BARWICK and Lorin will play a movement from the Shostakovich Cello Sonata (reworked for voice)". The long-standing vocal duo of Ron Heglin and KATT ATCHLEY will present improvisations in the second set.
Splinter Reeds
SPLINTER REEDS is beyond psyched to be exiting toddlerhood - with their first touring engagements, more residencies, and FOUR new commissions (so far) on the horizon for 2016-17. They want to party, as it were. With you.
Splinter Reeds's upcoming season is without a doubt their biggest yet, so they're devoting an evening of their mid-summer rehearsal intensive to share and show off what's in store. But most importantly, they want to hang out, have fun, and thank everyone who's been so instrumental in launching them onto this path. Their scrappy ensemble formed just three short years ago – and are now poised for their first touring engagements, with more exhilarating residencies and commissions from four of their favorite composers currently in the pipeline.
The event will be casual and festive, with free admission, food and drink. Splinter will play sneak previews of the new work (Ken Ueno, Eric Wubbels, Theresa Wong, and others) as well as other pieces solo or with invited friends
SPLINTER REEDS is the West Coast's first and only professional reed quintet, comprising five virtuosic and innovative musicians with a shared passion for new music. Individually, these five are active as both soloists and members of various esteemed ensembles locally and across the nation, with affiliations including the San Francisco Contemporary Music Players, Alarm Will Sound, Sqwonk, Ensemble Dal Niente, sfSound, Redshift and ECO Ensemble. As fierce advocates of new music throughout their careers, Splinter's members are proud to have spearheaded many notable commissions and world premiere performances. As educators, members of the ensemble hold teaching positions at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, Oberlin, UC Berkeley and UC Santa Cruz.
With a uniquely dynamic instrumentation that includes oboe (Kyle Bruckmann), clarinet (Bill Kalinkos), saxophone (David Wegehaupt), bass clarinet (Jeff Anderle), and bassoon (Dana Jessen), the reed quintet is an evolutionary detour from the traditional woodwind quintet with the orchestrational advantages of a more closely related instrument family. It remains a relatively new and emerging chamber music genre, having come to life in the 1980s with the notable Dutch ensemble, Calefax. Distinguishing itself even within the small network of roughly 20 professional reed quintets currently active worldwide, Splinter is explicitly committed to the cutting edge of contemporary composition, freely juxtaposing elements of multiple styles and aesthetics in their programming in order to enthusiastically share adventurous new music with the widest possible audience.
The ensemble kicked off its 2013-14 Debut Season with a residency at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. Additional concert engagements since then have included performances at the San Francisco Center for New Music, Switchboard Music Festival, Presidio Sessions, April in Santa Cruz Festival of Contemporary Music, Mondavi Center, the Trinity Chamber Concert Series, and Old First Concerts. They have quickly developed a particular penchant for university residencies, having so far worked closely with the composition students at UC Berkeley's CNMAT, UC Davis, and Stanford University's CCRMA. Their debut CD, featuring two of their own commissions and four premiere recordings, was just released in November 2015.

The population size of emperor penguins at the land-based Taylor Glacier colony was monitored over 54 years from 1957 to 2010 by intermittent ground counts from 1957 to 1975 and annual photographic counts from 1988 to 2010 of males attending the colony in winter and chicks in early summer. The breeding population in the early years averaged 3,684 ± 492 pairs compared with 2,927 ± 320 pairs from 1988–2010, a reduction of 20.5 %. The exact timing and magnitude of the change is unknown because there was a 13-year gap between the end of the historical counts and start of the contemporary counts. From 1954 to 2010 no real or inferred warming event that may have been linked to the decrease was evident at Australia's Mawson station, 95 km from Taylor Glacier colony. From 1988 to 2010, variation in breeding population size and breeding success were not related to variation in the distance between the colony and open water. In this period, the number of pairs breeding fluctuated annually and overall showed signs of a gradual decrease. The Taylor Glacier colony is one of only three emperor penguin colonies where populations have been monitored in winter over the long term. Given the threat of climate warming to the future of this ice-dependent species it is imperative that the annual monitoring programme at Taylor Glacier continues well into the future.
