The online casino bought the unusual advertising space on internet auction site eBay. Kari Smith was paid $10,000 for a permanent tattoo of the GoldenPalace logo on her forehead. She said she will put the money towards her son's education. Smith's eBay auction attracted more than 27,000 hits and 1,000 watchers.
Perhaps more bizarre is the eBay purchase of a jar of air waved near Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt at the premier of Mr and Mrs Smith. GoldenPalace.com paid $529.99 for the novelty item.

To the Editor:
I enjoyed Marissa Piesman's First Person essay on book clubs (''Not on the Same Page,'' Dec. 3). However, I must take exception to some of her comments about Hemingway, Faulkner and Conrad. My father was a working-class intellectual, a breed now unfortunately famous for their scarcity. He was a labor organizer who walked a picket line with a copy of Plato in one pocket and his fist in the other. Our library in our railroad flat in Brooklyn was the most important part of the living room, and Hemingway, Faulkner and Conrad were well represented.

Hendrick Plane Crash
November 1, 2011 by staff
Hendrick Plane Crash, The Hendrick family avert tragedy when Rick Hendrick and his wife, Linda Hendrick, were involved in a plane crash small minor in Florida Monday, October 31, 2011, at night. Luckily, the family escaped unharmed. Rick Hendrick, his wife and two pilots were taken to hospital, but no serious injuries. The plane skidded off the end of the runway due to a problem with the brakes of the aircraft. Rick Hendrick owns Hendrick Motorsports, a well known racing team in NASCAR. Although it was a minor accident, you are sure to recall almost all NASCAR fans.
NASCAR has dealt with some tragedies in airplane and helicopter accidents. The Hendrick family, in particular, had been beaten by tragedy when, on October 24, 2004, the team plane fell killing several family members Hendrick. Son of Rick Hendrick, Ricky, brother John and two nieces were killed along with two employees of Hendrick, a pilot and copilot, a representative of the sponsor and an employee of Tony Stewart. In the accident, the runway was exceeded by approximately five miles. The plane crashed into a mountain, killing all aboard. The plane had been taking passengers to the Martinsville Speedway.
The Hendrick family was not the only NASCAR family touched by plane and helicopter crashes. Alan Kulwicki and Davey Allison died in similar accidents. On April 1, 1993, Alan Kulwicki was among four people killed when the plane crashed it was on. He had just won the Winston Cup championship in 1992. That same year, a few months later, Davey Allison died when the helicopter he was piloting crashed. He was trying to land at Talladega Superspeedway when it crashed. He died on July 13, 1993. His father, NASCAR legend Bobby Allison, had lost another son, Clifford, less than a year earlier.
This crash is a chilling reminder of the plane crash that killed four members of the Hendrick family in 2004. Both accidents missed the runway, one for a bit because brakes failed and the other by five miles. Both crashed occurred in late October. Although the crash was heading to Martinsville Speedway, the plane crash in 2011 occurred just after the race in Martinsville, and was owned by Jimmie Johnson Racing. Johnson was the pilot who won the race at Martinsville in 2004. It is a mysterious plane crash, day of Halloween, which is sure to bring old memories to many NASCAR fans.
Kristin Watt has been a NASCAR Winston Cup, now Sprint Cup fan for as long as she remembers starting when she was a girl and her mother sat on the couch with her every Sunday during the season to watch the races. At the time, were fans of Bill Elliott and newcomer Davey Allison.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I overstayed my ESTA with 2 months, can I still get married to a US citizen? If yes, what the proper process would be and how can I get started and what papers will the courthouse ask if we get married and will they check my status if we register to get married? Thank you very much for help in advance.
yes you may marry even as an overstay. The process after marriage involves visa petition and adjustment of status. Since you arrived on an ESTA CIS has the authority not to adjudicate your adjustment application. However, this authority is not often exercised. You will be well served to obtain legal counsel in the process.
I agree with Attorney Brown. You can marry a USC even though your visa expired. The marriage must be a bona-fide good-faith marriage and not for any other purpose. Hire a experienced immigration lawyer to help you out.

You can get a green card through a US citizen spouse if you overstayed your visa. each state is different with respect to obtaining a marriage license. Usually you only need identification such as a passport.Ask a similar question
That is not a question about immigration law, but rather a question for the local clerk of court. You should be able to get married regardless of your status, but different counties have their own rules.
The above is intended only as general information, and does not constitute legal advice. You must speak with an attorney to discuss your individual case.Ask a similar question
You can get married, no problem. However, when you apply for adjustment of status I-130, I-485, etc. you might have an issue, because you came through ESTA. As such, you should have an attorney handling your case.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
Nice pool and pool area. Early breakfast at the bar possible. Air conditioning almost useless. TV sound broken.
it's near the airport
restaurants menu(16EURO) is excellent. And wifi-wireless service by free-cost is excellent,too.
A wonderful hotel. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful - even putting up with my dreadful Italian. The hotel was well designed,decorated, maintained and cleaned.
Convenient to the airport No
Comfortable large rooms, friendly staff, good restaurant
the staff was friendly and the breakfast was amazing no
The room for 5 pax was big and new. We were 5 at the room and it was very confortable. It is located in a quite city near Cagliary. We stayed there for 3 nights because it is a good point of departure for visiting all the south of Sardinia. There is a small but nice swimimg pool. The price for a family room is very good. Poor variety at the breakfast buffet but good quality. There is a train just closed to the hotel but we only heard 1 or 2 trains at day.
Mediocre hotel, slightly overpriced vis-a-vis location and facilities.
Great pool and friendly staff, however the location was a bit far out of cagliari. The local bus service was good but I would recommend hiring a car next time.
Hotel staff was very friendly and accommodating; English for 2 of 3 staff was limited. Location is decent cab ride from Airport and good jumping off place for other Cagliari jaunts. Plenty of bars/shops/cafes in walking distance. Good breakfast, too. Hotel room was a bit lacking in aesthetic and comfort, and a taxi was required from the airport, rather than bus/train. Although bus is easy enough to catch to city center (Main piazzas, shopping streets, etc.) it's quite far (25 minute bus ride).
Whilst not quite reaching the standards expected by the international traveller, it is precisely what can be expected in a small town in the Sardinia countryside. What small deficiencies there may have been were more than compensated by the warmth and helpfulness of the staff.
being in the center of the city,close to good restaurants and cafes. and free wifi
Good-sized room; hotel is very central yet quiet if you have a room at the back. Friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast, including fresh fruit. The furnishings and rather dark interior of the hotel make it look somewhat dull.
location/shops no internet even when requested at reception
It was relaxed and close to everything - very 'Italian'and friendly The shower was small
Whery good and frendly staf. Clean and big swiming pool. Good place for good price!
Very hospitable owners, extremely eager to help. A friendly atmosphere and a high level of cleanliness. No restaurant in the building. The staff did not speak English, but were very accommodating - you get a long way with manual sign language and some goodwill. The air conditioning system did not work, but one can hardly complain about that, as the room rates are quite low. The owners' dog barked long into the night.

Microsoft could be set to launch a smaller version of its Windows Surface tablet, having invited the technology press to an event in New York with the request to 'join us for a small gathering.'
The company has long been rumoured to be working on a smaller Surface to rival the iPad mini – and Microsoft itself has admitted it is working on Surfaces of various screen sizes and aspect ratios.
The most recent rumours claim the Surface mini will have a 7.5-inch screen with a resolution of 1440 x 1080, very similar to the 7.9-inch iPad mini with Retina Display. It is claimed the smaller Surface will be powered by a Qualcomm processor and run the Windows RT operating system, a slimmed down version of Windows 8.
Although Windows RT looks and performs similarly to the tiled interface of Windows 8, it's classic desktop environment can only be used with a small number of pre-installed applications, such as Office and Notepad. If it runs Windows RT, the Surface mini will not be able to run legacy apps – that is, apps created for any Windows operating system before 8.

BornToCode replied to D.V.D's topic in Math and PhysicsIf your matrix is row major then each basic would be a row. and the last row would be your translation. If you matrix is column major then each basic would be a column and the last column would be your translation. Now in the case of the ViewMatrix, it is the Transpose of the 3x3 row or 3x3 column depending on whether you are using row major or column major because the ViewMatrix is the Transpose of your world in that case if you have a row major matrix then your right axis would be your first column. Hope it makes sense.One thing to always remember is that OpenGL/DirectX always expect element 12,13,14,15 of the matrix to be translation. However you decide to use the other elements is completely up to you, as long you remain consistent.
BornToCode replied to the incredible smoker's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingWhen you use shaders you program the light yourself. So you can store light information into buffers/textures for example which can then be retrieve in the vertex/pixelshader to process more than 8 lights. But if you are using the fixed pipeline you cannot use more than 8 lights. If you want to use more than 8 lights you will have to render the scene more than once with additive blending.
BornToCode replied to gerx's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingJust to extend what Hodgman said. After you apply your projection matrix. all components are divided by w which clamps your x and y between -1 to 1 and z from 0 to 1 in DirectX and -1 to 1 in GL.
BornToCode replied to BornToCode's topic in Games Career DevelopmentThe medical job is right next to my house. About 2 miles away. The game company is about 30 miles a day.@Orymus3. That is exactly the problem, i am kind of like if i take the cad one, it will be stable but very boring work, but i will have more stability there. On the other hand the game company one sounds awesome, but i had bad experience in the past working for bigger game company and assume that working for a start up is probably worse. I do not want to find myself working everyday like 9 to 10pm where i am not spending time with my kids and wife.
BornToCode posted a topic in Games Career DevelopmentI am kind of in a dilemma right now. I have been working in the graphics industry ranging from games to projectors for the past 10 years. I recently received a job offer for a Senior graphics role in a start up company, at the same time i also received another job offer working in the medical field on a 3d cad like software. The medical one uses Javascript and WebGL. The other one as we all know is C++/DirectX11. I also have two kids, so stability/work life balance is very important, but at the same time i know i would enjoy the graphics role more. But in the back of my mind i know that the graphics role which is for the game company probably not gonna last a long time.So what would you guys recommend in that case.
BornToCode replied to sunsflower's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingWhat exactly are you trying to do.? glBufferData updates the entire buffer of data. glBufferSubData let you update a section the buffer which can be very helpful when you have a dynamic buffer and you just want to update a section of the buffer, while the gpu is working on some other section. The only reason it would not be efficient is if you are locking the entire buffer every frame and replacing the whole thing everytime then yes that will be inefficient because you will stall and you want to prevent that. But what you can do is make the buffer like twice or three times the size. That way you can map one section of it and update that while the GPU is currently drawing another section.With that there will be no stalls as long you can keep feeding data that the GPU is not currently working with, that is where glBufferSubData comes in handy, because it allows you to do exactly that.
BornToCode replied to lucky6969b's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingJust to extend a bit on what L.Spiro mention. The only difference between opengl and direct x is that if you are using their build in fixed pipeline matrix operation. The multiplication is done by multiplying column*row and in the case of direct x it is done by row*column. But the memory layout is the same on both. Element 12,13,14 represent position for both gl/dx. That is the reason why in DirectX you would do something like Rotate*Scale*Translate but in GL it would be Translate*Rotate*Scale to get the same result. Row major multiplication are perform left to right and column major are perfomed right to left.
BornToCode replied to Shannon Barber's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingLike L.Spiro mention. You can create an aditional FrameBuffer object and use those as your extra buffers.
BornToCode replied to BornToCode's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingI have gotten around it by creating a single buffer of 64k then just pass back a pointer that points to the current location in that buffer that i want to put the info. So the first object uses the first 32k and the second object uses the starting address+offset. Whenever i Map my resource i automaticaly add the offset to the starting address depending on the object i want to change. That way the resource is bound once and i can draw the two objects without any issues. That is what i meant when i say that you can write a system that can work around the limitation, you just have to managed it which is not a problem for me. I have written a ton of memory management system. . To be honest i really like the way they have it, because now you can tell exactly how much memory you are using.
BornToCode replied to BornToCode's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingMy beef was that I cannot insert object anywhere I want on that heap of 64k. For example on the cpu side when you write your own memory manager you can put things anywhere you want. So I was not expecting the gpu to have that kind of limitation. But just like I said it is no biggie because you can create a memory management system that works around that.
BornToCode replied to Infinisearch's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingResource barrier are a way to tell the GPU that you are switching the resource state. You see on the GPU a Resource is just that a resource. It can be in many different states. So resource barrier just let you set the resource state you want it to be before modifying that state.
BornToCode posted a topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingIt looks like even for a buffer with a width 1 ID3D12Device::GetResourseAllocationInfo always returns the size/aligment as 64K. That is not a problem. The issue i am having is that any resource created on that heap needs to respect the aligment. So if put a resource at Offset 0 and try to put another resource at 32k for example. The resource at 0 will work but when i try to put something at 32k, it generates an error that say all resource needs to respect the boundary. So if i have two distinct buffers of let's say 32k each, there is no way i can create two distinct resources with the exact amout of memory i want to use because of that issue. One buffer would need to be at HeapOffset 0 and the other at HeapOffset 64k. Also now i would need to create a Heap with a size of 64k*2 in order to put two 32k buffers in there. Now i just waste 32k on each side. I know i can overcome this by creating one Huge buffer and and just point to the buffer location that i want to draw. But i kind of find it very annoying that the API does not let you insert the data into any location in a Heap. All in all i know you can write a system that managed the heaps similar to how you would do it in the CPU side if you were to write your own memory management system. That way that limitation does not seem like it exist.
BornToCode replied to BornToCode's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingLooking more at the D3D12.h header it seems like this is the only place where they have that mistake. So i guess it is a typo on someones part.
BornToCode posted a topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingI do not know why microsoft would do this. I think it would have make things easier to know which parameter they took, especially when you have a enum define for something. Then in the structure instead of defining one of the attribute with that enum they pass an Int instead. A good example of that is enum D3D12_COMMAND_QUEUE_PRIORITY { D3D12_COMMAND_QUEUE_PRIORITY_NORMAL = 0, D3D12_COMMAND_QUEUE_PRIORITY_HIGH = 100 } D3D12_COMMAND_QUEUE_PRIORITY; typedef struct D3D12_COMMAND_QUEUE_DESC { D3D12_COMMAND_LIST_TYPE Type; INT Priority; D3D12_COMMAND_QUEUE_FLAGS Flags; UINT NodeMask; } The Priority flag is a D3D12_COMMAND_QUEUE_PRIOORITY why the heck would they pass an Int. I know at the end of the day an enum is just an Int, but it would have been more friendly and i would not need to look at the documentation to make sure that the correct Int values that can be passed are D3D12_COMMAND_QUEUE_PRIORITY. I am pretty sure they have similar issues throughout the API.
BornToCode replied to Infinisearch's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingYes you can specify the location but if you try to use an upload heap or read back in L1 it will fail.

Hoping to clinch a state title, Northside High School's mock trial teams are headed to Lake Charles this weekend.
Two teams of eight students from Northside will battle other schools from across the state in the competition, which will be held Saturday at the 14th Judicial District Courthouse.
The teams are vying for top honors in the 2015 Judge Richard N. Ware IV Memorial High School Mock Trial.
Northside teams placed first and second in regional competition to secure two spots in the state competition. The top mock trial team from Saturday's competition will go on to represent Louisiana in a national competition in Raleigh, North Carolina, May 14-16.
"This is one of the best teams we've had in a while," said Liz Tullier, Northside High legal academy director.
As part of the state competition, teams try a case with one side playing the role of prosecution and the other the role of defense. Points are awarded based on courtroom etiquette, quality of their legal presentation and overall teamwork.
The mock trial scenario for the upcoming competition, written by the University of Louisiana at Monroe's mock trial team, involves the second-degree murder of a north Louisiana woman who was bludgeoned to death.
Last year, Northside High's mock trial team was selected by Harvard University to participate in a mock trial training seminar, where members of the team received feedback on their approaches and learned more about courtroom proceedings.
The team was also invited in 2014 for the second year in a row to the Empire Mock Trial Association's international competition in Brooklyn, New York, as well as a high school competition at Yale University.

Association of the UCP-1 single nucleotide polymorphism A-3826G with the dampness-phlegm pattern among Korean stroke patients
Basic research
Patients with stroke have various syndromes and symptoms. Through pattern identification (PI), traditional Korean medicine (TKM) classifies the several syndromes and symptoms of stroke patients into five categories: Fire-heat (FH), Dampness-phlegm (DP), Yin-deficiency (YD), Qi-deficiency (QD) and Blood-stasis (BS). DP has been associated with obesity and hyperlipidemia. Uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1), which plays a major role in thermogenesis and energy expenditure can increase the risk of obesity and can be related metabolic disorders. In this study, we elucidated the association of three polymorphisms located in the UCP-1 promoter and coding region with DP among Korean stroke patients.
1,593 patients with cerebral infarction (583/DP, 1,010/non-DP) and 587 normal subjects were enrolled. The genotypes A-3826G, G-1766A and Ala64Thr (G+1068A) for each subject were determined by polymerase chain reaction with TaqMan probes and five percent of subjects were re-genotyped by sequencing method to confirm the accuracy of genotyping. The results were analyzed using a multiple logistic regression model to evaluate the genetic associations: the UCP-1polymorphisms of normal versus those of DP subjects and those of normal versus those of non-DP subjects.
A significantly higher percentage of subjects in the DP group possessed the A-3826G G allele than the A allele (OR=1.508, p=0.006). Furthermore, the number of subjects with the GG type of A-1766G was significantly lower in the non-DP group than the normal group in the recessive model (OR=0.606, p=0.042). In addition, an analysis of the relationship among 2 SNPs of UCP-1 and lipid serum concentration showed that the serum level of HDL cholesterol was significantly higher in subjects with the A-3826G G allele in the normal group (p=0.032). Serum triglyceride and HDL cholesterol were also associated with the A-1766G variant in the recessive model (p=0.002, p=0.046).
These results suggest that that the A-3826G and A-1766G UCP-1 polymorphisms, which are related to obesity, might be candidate genetic markers for the DP pattern in the TKM diagnosis system.
Uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1) is a mitochondrial transporter that is present in the mitochondrial inner membrane, and it functions in ATP synthesis by dissipating oxidative energy from brown adipose tissue (BAT)
UCP-1 plays important roles in energy homeostasis, and UCP-1 gene polymorphisms have been implicated in the pathogenesis of obesity and related metabolic disorders, including lipid disorders
Traditional Korean medicine (TKM) is built on a medical foundation of comprehensive, integrated and holistic approaches. Pattern Identification (PI) in TKM is a unique diagnostic system that uses a comprehensive analysis on symptoms and signs
Recently, TKM research reported a relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) or Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and DP pattern
Study subjects
A total of 2180 Korean subjects including 587 controls without any sign of stroke and 1593 CI patients were enrolled in this study. In order to minimize the regional bias, the subjects were recruited from 10 Oriental Medical Hospitals from 2006 to 2010, including from Kyung-Hee Oriental Medical Hospital (Houeugi, Koduk in Seoul), Dae-Jeon University Oriental Medical Hospital, Wonk-Kang Oriental Medical Hospital (Jeonju, Iksan), Dong-Guk Oriental Medical Hospital (Ilsan), Kyung-Won Oriental Medical Hospital (Seoul), Dong-Sin Oriental Medical Hospital (Kwangju, Sunchon), and Sang-Ji Oriental Medical Hospital. The classification on 583 DP and 1,010 non-DP group (FH, QD, YD and BS) was performed by two TKM doctors using the Standard Pattern Identification for Stroke (K-SPI-Stroke)
Laboratory analysis
Anthropometric parameters of each subject were obtained with a questionnaire described by Kang et al.
Preparation of genomic DNA and identification of SNPs
Blood from each subject was collected after obtaining informed consent, and genomic DNA from each blood sample was isolated using a GeneAll genomic isolation kit (GeneAll, Seoul, Korea) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The three SNPs of UCP-1 were genotyped using the TaqMan method with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers and TaqMan probes designed by ABI, Inc. (Applied Biosystems, Inc., USA). Primer information for each SNP is shown in Additional file

Open and closed boxes represent the untranslated and translated regions, respectively. B) Linkage distribution among the three SNPs.
To confirm which factor was affected by A-3826G or A-1766G, we compared serum lipid parameters according to genotype in normal subjects (Table
A recent study published by Kim et al. explained that dampness-phlegm is an impediment to Qi, energy that circulates in channels called meridians and that causes various symptoms and signs when blocked or disrupted because of its high turbidity, heaviness, stickiness, and downward flowing properties
However, the inhibition of gene expression or gene activity caused by genetic deficiency of UCP-1 may result in imbalance on heat generation inside body, which changes in the oxidation of free fatty acids in the mitochondria can alter the blood levels of lipids through tissue cholesterol transport and ultimately lead to obesity. Therefore, this mechanism to control blood lipids may be affected by genetic polymorphisms such as A-3826G polymorphism of UCP-1 gene
The A-3826G, A-1766G and Ala64Thr, polymorphisms of UCP-1 gene, were previously associated with weight loss, abdominal obesity and metabolic disorder, which are risk factors of stroke. In the current study, we examined that A-3826G SNP were significantly associated with DP among Korean stroke patients. The G allele frequency of A-3826G was significantly higher than the A allele in the DP group (p=0.0247), and the number of subjects with the GG or GA genotype was larger than those with the AA type. A large distribution of G allele revealed after the analysis on A-3826G polymorphism among the patients with DP is also found among the obese
Oberkoflr et al. reported that UCP-1 mRNA levels in visceral fat were lower in obese subjects and that UCP-1 mRNA levels in fat tissue were regulated by the UCP-1 genotype
This study has several limitations. The first limitation relates to the diagnostic standard for PI. The PI types were confirmed by two experts with sufficient clinical experiences. Nevertheless, their diagnoses did not match. PI still has limitations in consistency and reproducibility because of its high dependence on subjective diagnostic indicators. Second, although DP in TKM is generally considered as a major causative factor for obesity, DP is not the sole cause that induces obesity, and other pattern such as Fire-Heat has also potential to result in obesity
We already reported that polymorphisms of the PON1 and NPY genes, which were associated with stroke and obesity, were related to DP among Korean stroke patients. The results of this study replicate the relationship that other studies have found between genetic polymorphism and PI, and the A-3826G SNP of the UCP-1 gene might be a predictive genetic marker for DP pattern.
We showed an association of UCP1 polymorphisms with DP in Korean stroke patients. A-3826G and A-1766G UCP-1 polymorphisms, which are related to obesity, might be candidate genetic markers for DP pattern in the TKM diagnosis system.

I've been a patient for 20 years, it had been 3 since mylast visit, when I called to make an appointment I was told im no longer a patient and it would months before I could come in. When I asked for the soonest available date I was told to stop yelling and called a derogatory name. Now I need a new Dr. I will NEVER RETURN there other than to tell them how horrible they are. These people should not be in the medical field let alone a part of society. They are absolutely awful.

This doctor was amazing when I began going to him, which was about 8 years ago, since then, things changed for the worst.. This doctor knew his stuff, cared about patients, and fast forward to the last year.. DO NOT USE HIM. His staff are like revolving doors.. each time you go there, more new people, why? the stuff does not stay on top of major issues concerning surgeries, or any other important issues.. The doctor has WAY TOO MANY patients to give a hoot about any of them!!!!! You will spend an hour waiting and MAYBE get 5 minutes of his time, and on to the next one.. He took on way more many patients then he can handle.. This is NOT the same doctor I knew at the start.. He needs to go back to his old ways, and not try to make all this money on over patients, he either receives from insurance or out of pockets... It is sad, but truly if you are looking for true medical care, look further.. He does not care!! He is not worth reviewing

Unhappy patient.
They office staff is very rude and unprofessional. They do not return calls and show no immediate attention to the needs of the patients. I have waited 2 weeks or more and never received a call back. The doctor is very nice and caring, however, the staff needs to be replaced!!!

I love the Doctor but the problem is the Staff. They are Horrible!! The front desk staff are very rude. It takes them days to call the pharmacy so they can order your prescription. Seems his Staff don't care about patient's health. Doctor Herrera is a GREAT Doctor but his Staff not so great. He need to fired his staff and hire people that DO like working....Just Saying!!

Bad Practise
Had a gout flair up had asked for an appointment, was advised that the earliest was a week away. Asked if there was any way that the doctor could extend a script for a week until the visit. Answer was no. No alternatives or options. So sit in pain for a week and we will get to you. No thanks Doc.

Doctor's staff offers the worse service at front desk
The staff doesn't care about patients needs. They are more concern on their own business than the patients. I had been waiting for more than 1 hour to be called just for a blood test. I won't refer this doctor to anyone who needs one.

Kind and caring Doctor
Dr Herrera has been my primary care physician for 8 years. In that time there has never been a time that I have called with an emergency that his staff has not fit me in. Yes sometimes the wait can be long but he is definitely worth it. He has one very important quality lacking in so many doctors today. When you have an appointment, he sees you, every single time. You aree not seen by a nurse practitioner; he sees every single patient, every single time. When he comes in the exam room he sits down, talks to you; asks how you are and what the problems are, his exams are thorough, he never makes you feel rushed and his diagnosis is always spot on. If you are hospitalized he is in to see you every day. I was hospitalized on Christmas last year and he even came in to check on me on Christmas Day. That is rare in a physician in this day and age. He shows kindness and compassion to every single patient and he keeps up with the newest trends and he is a great diagnostician. I would never consider changing doctors for any reason.

Dr. Herrera has been an amazing diagnostician for our family. His bedside manner is reminiscent of the time when doctors actually cared about their patients. Even with the pressures of the medical climate today, he is current on the new advances in medicine while still appreciating the tried and true products of the past.

market day.
On tuesday we got up with the larks and flew to the market. So cold, there was a frost in London! but to compensate for the mid-winter temperature in AUGUST, we were supplied with a most beautiful sunrise.
gradually, things started hotting up, and as our frozen hands became acclimatised, we were parting with money like there was no tomorrow!
Lucky for us, only small, cheap items were attracting us this time, so all in all, a very good haul.
I bought a few of these French jam jars for my teabags and sugar!
and we both fell for this naked Paddington {although he's now called Euston}
so many kid's toys around at the moment.
we found this table rather lovely, such a nice colour, and just the right amount of roughed up.
i bought a child's knitted jumper for poor old Euston, but it was a bit on the tight side, so until he can drop a few pounds, he'll remain naked.
a found some nice toys too, and another 'pecking hen's' toy!
some fabulous dead stock 1970s french sunglasses, bridge pencils and a 1973 Alice in Wonderland board game probably for the shop. For me I found a blue aran knit cardigan and some 1920s cotton pyjamas.
I hope to update the bucket tree soon, but you know, i always say that!

oh my. Euston is precious.For some reason those bridge pencils please me very much...love your finds and heart your blog!ReplyDelete
That table is absolute perfection. I love it!ReplyDelete
Wow! Looks like a goldmine!ReplyDelete
What great finds!ReplyDelete
Poor Euston, a bit too chubby to fit into his sweater. If the diet doesn't work, you can try gently blocking the sweater. Once you've gently hand-washed it and pressed most of the water out (I like to roll my wet knit in a thick towel and then "stand" on the roll to get most of the moisture out) you can gently stretch the sweater to a larger dimension and let dry. You should be able to gain at least an inch or two.
Wouldn't want Euston to catch cold this winter!

As I left Death Valley that day there was a funk in the air. The eyes of Tiger fans as they packed their tailgating supplies back into their cars spoke volumes of emotions that this man can't put into words in one article. The Funk never left Clemson in 1998. The Tigers went on to finish 3-8 with the only wins coming against Furman, Maryland, and South Carolina…all terrible football teams.
Snap back out of that nightmare and fast-forward to February 15, 2001. Larry Shyatt's Tigers travel up to Raleigh to face the North Carolina State Wolfpack. There is optimism, you see. The Tigers defeated State back in January at Littlejohn and there is hope the Tigers can snap a 7 game losing streak.
Final score. State 85. Clemson 51. That is a 34-point rolling for the mathematically challenged. And, to make matters worse, it the third time in the last ten games that the Tigers have been beaten by more than 28 points.
That Funk in the air from Tommy West's final year in Clemson has returned.
This article is not about the right or wrong of firing Larry Shyatt. That debate has been raging since early this year across Internet message boards and talk radio. The argument for and against is tired. There is no complete right, or wrong, when you look at firing Coach Shyatt.
Allow me, for a moment, to enlighten you on the reality of the situation.
There are a million reasons to keep Shyatt around for another year. Problem is, there are also a million reasons to send him packing. Bobby Robinson, Clemson's Athletic Director, is really in a win-win situation that could also be viewed as a lose-lose situation.
The politically correct thing to do is to listen to the supporters of Shyatt and give him another year to turn the ship around. Shyatt seems to have a genuine love for Clemson University and a tremendous drive to see things turn around.
The common sense thing to do is to cut your losses and commence a search for a head basketball coach with name recognition and respect (see South Carolina Football's hiring of Lou Holtz in 1998).
What would I do? Don't know. I'm glad it is not up to me. But Bobby Robinson is a smart guy with a pretty good track record despite his perception by Clemson's vocal majority who rue his very existence in Clemson.
But, I can tell you this. That funk that hung around Tommy West in his final months in Clemson is back. You can see it, feel it, and smell it.
If Larry Shyatt survives and is granted another year as head of the Clemson Basketball Experience, many will call it "the right thing to do".
But, my hunch tells me that The Funk is going to win out. You see, The Funk rarely loses. It makes its living by preying on good guys that love Clemson University but don't win very many games. Just ask Tommy West.
I'll take The Funk minus the 3 ½ .

The plan is to have one piece of fruit or less per day, and get toward 50F/30P/20C
No announcement yet.
Our own little Kiwi Thread !
new posts
I've looked at whole 30 before, but I'm really not that diciplined! I don't know that I need to be?
Over the last month I've cut back my dairy to just a little cheese and maybe two cups of coffee/tea with milk each day. But I think I'd hate to remove it completely. I like my little treats, white sauce made with milk and flour once a week, a piece of cake once a week, 3 or 4 squares of dark choc in the evening......it makes life worth living IMO. IF and whole30 is serious business, and I enjoy my fun (and food) a little too much for that.
Maybe my scoliosis pain would be more controlled if I was better at keeping to Primal 100%? Then I could stop harping on about chronic pain on here! Gwamma - thanks for the suggestion that I search the archives, there are some interesting things hidden in the depths of MDA.
Zoe - excuse my ignorance, but what is BAS ???"never let the truth get in the way of a good story "
...small steps....
I struggle with IF, way too disciplined for me. sometimes i accidentally do but not often deliberately. if i make the coconut coffee creamer and there is no cream in the house, i am fine with it. i dont like coffee with normal milk which is a bonus. i can cope without sauces and choc and cake are serious gateway binge foods for me so i have to avoid them. but yes. i am totally with you. i enjoy my food so all i am really doing with a whole 30 is channeling it into a way of eating primarily the foods i enjoy that are whole 30 compliant instead of including other non whole 30 foods i enjoy like dairy.
Thank you Seaweed - of course it is
DUH !!!!!!"never let the truth get in the way of a good story "
...small steps....
Wow am I really ditzy or what. I replied to your post twice. I so need to eat some eggs and BAS !!!!!!!"never let the truth get in the way of a good story "
...small steps....
Its the daylight savings Seaweed. I feel shattered, its amazing what a difference an hour makes. My kids normally wake at 6am, so today's 7am start was a little better but it still throws you. Wonder how long it'll take the kids to start waking up at our 'new' 6am?
I would say that the issues around IF/whole30 and the like have everything to do with whatever your specific goals are.
To understand, observe our history:
2000: Zoebird-- vegan; DH -- WAPF.
2007: Zoebird -- vegetarian; DH "dave diet" which was primal/paleo.
2008: baby! Zoebird -- vegetarian; DH "dave diet" with some grains.
2010: move to NZ! Zoebird -- vegetarian; DH -- a few more grains.
Nov 2010 -- DH having major health/gut issues, sees naturopath who removes grains, acupuncturist removes dairy. Zoebird looks up barefoot running, finds her way to paleo. TWo weeks later, family goes primal.
Primal was chosen because of the flexibility. DS still consumes dairy and we use butter (pretty sparingly, actually), and this gave a good community to learn stuff. I still used the 20% pretty hard in terms of occasionally having cookies, cakes, and ice cream.
I ahven't eaten dairy since going primal (other than butter and the occasional ice cream), so cheese and the like has no temptation for me. I don't drink milk or want yogurt or anything like that.
April 2011: DH started to heal his gut with a combination paleo-GAPS. Zoebird continues with primal. Zoebird begins to notice that she doesnt' eat breakfast until late, and due to schedule, doesn't eat dinner until late. Discovers it's an 8 hour eating window. Notices that she's naturally IFing.
Nov 2011: Zoebird notices that emotional eating has run amok. Continues to run amok but with more primal foods and fewer grains. Gains a bit of stress weight. Takes up roller derby. Sucks at it. DH continues GAPS/paleo.
April 2012: Zoebird goes under major work-related stress. Emotional eating under control, goes back to normal paleo eating, doing whole9 to reset. Continues to casually IF 16/8. Still has cookies, cakes, ice cream occasionally.
August 2012: Zoebird goes to australia. Most stressful month *ever* and eating was horrendous. Lots more grains than ever. Zoebird gains fat.
Sept 2012: coming down off of August, Zoebird notices she has gained fat.
Sept 30 2012: DH mentions that he's been researching IF (which I'd mentioned to him over a year ago), and that he wants to give it a try. He's been researching being both young and beautiful, and it looks like IF might play a good part in that *if* a person is getting enough calories. We also get Arthur DeVany information.
Oct 1 2012: DH and Zoebird decide to go forward with an IF/whole-30 protocol with a high-raw content in terms of veggies. Frozen (to be steamed) veggies will be utilized sparingly.
So far, so good. Of course, it's only day one. For dinner, DH is having a kumara with steak and BAS. I'm having BAS and steak. I have a new recipe for kale-cilantro chimichurri sauce. I can't wait to try it!
i do tend to go alot for denial which is anothe reason i dont IF. I have always toyed with the idea of getting the Arthur Devany info.
k i have my assault boots on, i have removed the studded belt and put my hair back and am doing the outdoors look lol great how clothes can make you a magician. the other good thing about this way of life is, even tho i am rinsed, i dont have to slather myself in makeup to look presentable. i am going to look for some piko piko fronds while i am ecotouring to try. and grab some horopito for seasoning things.
Originally posted by zoebird View PostI would say that the issues around IF/whole30 and the like have everything to do with whatever your specific goals are.
Interesting history Zoebird, and good luck. Keep us posted with your progress.
Thanx for that history Zoebird. It is interesting to read about others struggles/life. We all suffer? from it, and it is how we interpret or solve it that makes a huge difference. And its great to read of your positive attitude.
I still have a ways to go, but have been inspired by your earlier post.
....so today is also day 1 of a revamped whole 30 for me. My focus is different...so we shall see if it is sustainable!"never let the truth get in the way of a good story "
...small steps....
Exactly. My goal is to maintain where I like to be -- keeping things simple. IF actually made my life easier, becuase I wasn't forcing myself to have the breakfast that I didn't want. My body naturally went that way.
I never did a whole30 before because, well, I never really felt that I needed to. I'm mostly doing it at this point to see if I can, and to see if I can break the sugar habit of the last two stress-related months.
I wouldn't say that any of it has been a struggle, per se. But my goal is to get back to 18% (i'm at about 20% now) which I maintain very easily with my natural IF cycle (i typically prefer not to eat breakfast, for example) and basic primal. Which means that now-and-again I do have "treats" such as going out for gelato or some such.
But it got out of hand in the last two months (due to stress), and so because of this, I need to clean things up a bit. It happens to coincide with when DH wants to do it, which makes it more fun.
And, oddly, part of our motivation is to spend less money, time, and effort on food, and more of those things on other things that we enjoy doing.
For DH, this is a big change. He has orthorexic tendencies -- and for years would have a great deal of anxiety around food. Over the last 15 years, a lot has changed and he's a lot less stressed about it. He sees this IF process as an opportunity for more fun and less worry about food. He's really excited about it. Before, he felt shackled by 6 meals a day, and the prep time and clean up time from it, as well as having to stop and eat, and if he didn't eat, he would practically go into a panic attack.
Now, he's like "wow, this IF thing, it could work really well for me!" So, it's liberating, rather than being constraining.
But everyone is different. That's why I dont' "recommend" any given thing beyond "basic primal." tweak when you think that something will help, but otherwise, basic primal is *great* for your health and well being!

Quick and easy lake access.
Wow...you will fall in LOVE with this vacation home!! It was perfect! We loved the wonderful sound system through out the home, the lighting, the perfect kitchen and dining areas!! The bedrooms and bathrooms were beautifully decorated and you will love even the thick towels.
The lake is beautiful...so clean and clear. We were able to use the kayak and canoe to explore around the lake. We loved watching the sunsets and having a campfire by the lake.
The hot tub was amazing and even the hot shower on the outside of the house to shower off before coming into the house.
The setting is so peaceful and quiet ....you will LOVE, LOVE this home!!
We already want to return!!
If you're looking for a place on Dale Hollow Lake, look no further, you've found it. This is absolutely the best place you will find. A beautiful house inside and out, with a hot tub on the deck and a great sound system. It's steps from the waters edge with an amazing view. We actually saw a bald eagle pluck a fish out of the lake while we were sitting at the dinning room table. We also loved the daily visits from the big white dog we called Big Al. He even met us at the boat ramp, which is walking distance from the house, to say goodbye as we were loading up to leave. Awesome house, Awesome view, Awesome lake. Thanks Eric
Very nice house! Everything you need and use is there at the house. Appliances, grill, linens, etc. Boat ramp very close and convenient. Hot tub very nice. Grill very nice. Surround sound really nice. Fishing was very good. Very private. My parents in their 70's enjoyed it. My son 16 enjoyed as well. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a family vacation spot. WE plan on returning!
My second visit to this beautiful place.We stayed at the house for a week fishing and had a great time. Stunning surroundings,awesome waterfront house,fully equipped with everything you need. We'll definitely go back.Highly recommended.
We were so lucky to stay at this beautiful lake home. It was far enough away from town to be a true disconnect from stress, but close enough to have everything we needed.
We stayed here for a long weekend and were completely satisfied. This place is nice and secluded and at night it's so quiet you can hear the planes flying overhead at 35,000ft!
When we arrived we were greeted by the Dale Hollow Lake Ambassador Tundra. Tundra is a very friendly Great Pyrenees who will make the rounds and keep you company if you like. We were also greeted by Kathy who showed us around the house and was great. The grill was brand new and the inside appeard to have been remodeled with in the past year or so. The hot tub on the back deck was wonderful and hot. They offered the use of their kayaks and canoe while we were there which we gladly took advantage of. All in all it was a great trip and I would stay here again in a heartbeat! You will not be disappointed.

Topic: Propagation, Seeds and Seeding, Herbs/Forbs, Wildflowers
Title: Flowering plant for gravesite in Weatherford TX
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I want to plant flowering plant of some kind at parent's grave site in Weatherford, TX. The family cemetery is on a limestone hill with no irrigation or ability to water other than nature. Would one of the sage plants, such as the Mealy Blue Sage survive under these conditions?
So far, you are in luck. Tbis USDA Plant Profile Map shows that Salvia farinacea (Mealy blue sage) grows natively in Parker County.This means that the right growing conditions, soils, rainfall and climate prevail in the area where you want the plant to grow.
If you click on the plant link Salvia farinacea (Mealy blue sage) you will find these growing conditions:
"Growing Conditions
Water Use: Low
Light Requirement: Sun
Soil Moisture: Moist
Soil pH: Acidic (pH<6.8)
Soil Description: Limestone soils. Calcareous, Limestone-based, Caliche type, Sandy, Sandy Loam, Medium Loam, Clay Loam, Clay."
The only thing we are concerned about is the possible need for water in the early stages of the plant's growth. In North Central Texas, as in Central Texas, the area is gripped in a dry heat wave. Very young new plants can suffer more than established plants in this situation. Here are the propagation instructions for this plant:
Propagation Material: Seeds , Softwood Cuttings
Description: Propagate by seed or cuttings.
Seed Collection: Collect the seeds as the capsules begin to dry but before they have dropped the seeds. Spread seeds in thin layers to dry a few days before storing in sealed, refrigerated containers.
Seed Treatment: Generally, a cold-moist stratification period is required for germination of Salvia seed. This species does require light for germination.
Commercially Avail: yes
Maintenance: After an extended period of flowering, you may wish to prune it halfway back to produce thicker, more compact foliage and a shorter flowering plant. Pruning may delay flowering for several weeks, but it is important in preventing leggy plants."
We found an article from the Missouri Botanical Garden on Native Seed Propagation Methods. Because the plants will have to be left untended we think it would be better to sprout the seeds in pots and make bedding plants, and then plant them out in early Spring to take advantage of Spring rains, if any. But, if that is not practical, plants have been dropping seeds on the ground, the seeds have waited for some water and then sprouted, bloomed, reseeded themselves and survived on their own for many centuries. This plant blooms from April to October, drops its seeds in the Fall and, since it is a perennial, will not bloom until the second Spring after being seeded.
