Ilia is the best! We hired him for dance lessons for our wedding, and he has helped two VERY beginner dancers put together a routine and made it look great. He is patient, explains dance concepts/combo clearly, and has made dancing fun for us. His wedding package price is also the best around. It would be a mistake to not take dance lessons with him!
I love this place! It was a bit intimidating for me to walk into a dance studio, but the staff was warm and welcoming, right from the start! I signed up for 10 private lessons, and am having a blast! The instructors are helpful and encouraging, and teach steps, technique, cultural significance, and etiquette of dance... all in a safe and fun environment, which encourages socialization. I am so happy I decided to jump in and do this, and am lucky to have found the perfect place to start! This has been a delightful and uplifting experience. I highly recommend La Danse Cleveland! The staff are welcoming and professional. ; )
i always look forward to my dance lesson with Ricky - he is the BEST!

TUSCALOOSA | A rejected plan to use a now-shuttered armory by the University of Alabama could lead to a new park and green space for West Tuscaloosa residents.
TUSCALOOSA | A rejected plan to use a now-shuttered armory by the University of Alabama could lead to a new park and green space for West Tuscaloosa residents.
Last year, it was announced that the former Armed Forces Reserve Center on 10th Avenue was intended to be a facility to house UA's fleet of school-owned vehicles, garage services and its environmental health department.
But a requirement under the facility take-over plan with the U.S. Department of Defense required the university to use the existing buildings and did not allow for demolition.
At first, it appeared the damage to the building caused by the tornado of April 27, 2011 — the roof was damaged and windows blew out — did not cause enough structural damage to warrant significant renovations.
That, however, is no longer the case, and the Department of Defense is now in the process of clearing the necessary bureaucratic hurdles to have the site cleared.
Robin Edgeworth, director of the city's recovery operations, told the City Council's Public Projects Committee on Dec. 4 that UA has declined to proceed with its plans for the site, despite earning permission from the Department of Defense and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to do so.
Now, city officials want to convert the space into a park.
The city's involvement in the future of the site began in 2006, when the Department of Defense decided to close the reserve center and open a new one in Tuscaloosa. This happened in July 2011, when a new $13 million reserve center opened on a 16-acre site off Alabama Highway 69 South.
But part of the military's decision to close the old facility included the federal government offering City Hall a role in determining how the remaining facility would be use.
The City Council signed off on UA's plans for the site, just as it did in April 2009, when the Tuscaloosa County Parking and Transit Authority and the Tuscaloosa Housing Authority announced plans to share the property. Had this plan been approved, the Housing Authority would have used the main building and connected parking for a social services center for homeless families, and the Transit Authority would use the depot and maintenance area for its bus maintenance facility.
But two months later, this proposal fell apart when the Housing Authority announced that it lacked the money to proceed with its plans.
Now, the City Council is expected to sign off on the park proposal recommended by Edgeworth and the Tuscaloosa Redevelopment Authority, which was formed in accordance with Department of Defense regulations to consider proposals for the center and make a recommendation.
The plan also must undergo federal scrutiny before the park can be developed.
Federal guidelines require that the property be conveyed for a use that will provide a public benefit.

The Culprits Behind The Ceaseless Crying
Colic: it's that long-suffering yet just-common-enough syndrome in babies that doctors have the tendency to wave off as "just one of those things" that the baby will eventually grow out. What about until then? What can you do?
Colic is hard
As I said, my second daughter definitely suffered from the ever-mysterious colic. She had it, all right. Oh, did she have it.
For hours upon hours she would scream endlessly, arching her neck away from me, refusing to be held, too miserable to find comfort in my arms. I felt like a bad mother for not being able to hold my own child. To this day, my husband and daughter have an extra special bond from the time he spent walking her around the house, him cradling her in the football position, the only way she could seem to find any repose.
I tried everything I could think of to help. I cut out everything out of my diet; no dairy, no sugar, no caffeine of any kind (I breastfed her). We tilted her mattress to help keep her upright. Still, nothing helped until eventually she settled down around 3 months old. I'm still not sure what was wrong or if there was more to her crying episodes.
Regardless, parents with colicky babies will always hold a special place in my heart and in preparation of my fourth baby and the hope of avoiding a repeat performance, I did a little digging on some of the common culprits of colic in babies.
Common colic triggers
Unfortunately, there is no one cause for colic that doctors have been able to determine. Some causes of colic can include:
- Cow's milk intolerance
- Smoking during pregnancy or an environment that has second-hand smoke
- Breast milk allergies, such as nuts, eggs or even caffeine
- Fruit with seeds in it, such as raspberries
- Reflux
- Premature babies/an immature nervous system
- Excess gas
- Over-feeding
- Low birth weight
What you can do
If you suspect your baby is suffering from colic, start a journal, documenting how often the crying is happening, when it's occurring and for how long. Also note any factors before the crying happened, like if it was immediately following a feeding or a bowel movement. If you are breastfeeding, log your diet to see if you notice a trend in certain foods increasing or decreasing the baby's fussiness. I definitely found that certain foods, like even a sip of caffeine, made my daughter's colic considerably worse. Before I found out that seeded fruit can be an especially brutal cause of gas to a newborn baby, I was going through cartons of raspberries and blueberries in my quest to lose the baby weight. You can imagine my horror when I discovered that I was actually the cause of so much of my daughter's pain. #mommyfail
Secondly, take your baby and your information into for a visit with your pediatrician. Although it's rare, colic may often be mistaken for a different condition, like an ear infection or even a hernia. The doctor can also help you determine if your baby may be allergic to his formula or try to switch you to a brand that may work better. Lastly, in some cases, the colic may be the result of reflux that is so severe it can require medication to help your baby keep her feedings down.
In the end, colic is such a hard time for both Baby and parents. No one likes to see their child in pain and the sleepless nights will wear on you both. Take time to give each other a break, if you can, and when all else fails, take heart that in most cases, colic disappears by 3 months of age, something I found to be very true.
Still, just in case, remind me not to eat any raspberries this time around, OK?

text: I am new to OpengGL. The tutorials that I have read explain how to pass vertex data to the GPU using vertex buffer objects. I have this working fine for a single mesh. For a scene consisting of many meshes (for example, one mesh per object in the scene or perhaps several meshes for a single complex object), is it standard practice to create a VBO for each mesh?

NEW YORK (AP) -- Heisman Trophy winners Danny Wuerffel of Florida and Ron Dayne of Wisconsin, along with two-time national champion Tommie Frazier of Nebraska, were selected Tuesday for the College Football Hall of Fame.
They are part of a class of 12 players and two coaches chosen by the National Football Foundation and revealed Tuesday.
The rest of the players to be inducted in December are: Miami Heisman winner Vinny Testaverde, whose selection was announced Monday; Ted Brown of North Carolina State; Tedy Bruschi of Arizona; Jerry Gray of Texas; Steve Meilinger of Kentucky; Orlando Pace of Ohio State; Rod Shoate of Oklahoma; Percy Snow of Michigan State; and Don Trull of Baylor.
The new Hall of Fame coaches are Wayne Hardin, who led Navy and Temple, and Bill McCartney of Colorado.
Florida and Nebraska fans have been eagerly awaiting the inductions of their beloved quarterbacks for years.
Wuerffel won the Heisman in 1996, when he led the Gators to the national championship, throwing for 3,625 yards and 39 touchdowns in coach Steve Spurrier's Fun-n-Gun offense.
"I'm thankful for what college football has meant in my life ... and how it allowed me to help other people," said Wuerffel, who was appeared at a news conference with Bruschi at the Nasdaq Stock Exchange in Times Square.
He finished with college career as one of the most prolific passers in major college football history with 10,875 and 114 touchdown passes.
After a short NFL career, he retired to dedicate himself to ministry work in New Orleans, where he played from 1997-99 with the Saints.
In 2011, Wuerffel was diagnosed with a rare auto-immune disorder - GuillainBarre syndrome, which causes paralysis and problems with the nervous system but is treatable.
Frazier was a four-year starter running coach Tom Osborne's option attack, and helped the Huskers to national championships in 1994 and `95. His tackling-breaking 75-yard touchdown run put an exclamation point on Nebraska's 62-24 victory over Wuerffel and Florida in the 1996 Orange Bowl national title game.
"You never play the game and think you are going to be in the Hall of Fame one day," Frazier said in a statement released by Nebraska. "You just go out and try to be the best you can and whatever happens happens. I was fortunate good things happened."
Frazier finished second in the Heisman Trophy voting in 1995 as a senior and finished his career with 5,476 total yards of offense and 79 total touchdowns.
Dayne is the NCAA's career rushing leader with 6,397 yards rushing, though his bowl game yards would boost his career total past 7,000 yards if he played at a time when the NCAA counted them in regular season stats. The burly tailback won the Heisman for the Badgers in 1999.
Brown left North Carolina State as the Atlantic Coast Conference's leader in rushing yards (4,602) and touchdowns (51).
Bruschi had 52 sacks as part of Arizona's Desert Swarm defenses during the mid-1990s.
Gray is one of the top defensive backs to play at Texas. He finished his career with 16 interceptions and 297 tackles.
Steve Meilinger was a star on offense, defense and special teams for Paul "Bear" Bryant at Kentucky in the early 1950s.
Orlando Pace is considered one of the most dominant offensive linemen in college football history. He finished fourth in the Heisman voting in 1996.
Shoate led the Sooners in tackles for three straight seasons during his career from 1972-74.
Snow became the first player to win the Butkus award as the nation's top linebacker and the Lombardi as the top linemen or linebacker as a senior with Michigan State in 1989.
Trull passed for more than 4,000 yards and 27 touchdowns for the Bears from 1961-63.
Hardin coached Joe Bellino and Roger Staubach to the Heisman Trophy at Navy in the 1960s, and then went on to become the most successful coach in Temple history.
McCartney helped turn Colorado from a cellar dwellar to a national title contender in the 1990s.

The polish that Red Hat and Mandrake have added to their consumer-grade Linux offerings have meant a lot to users like me, those who use it as their main desktop OS. Finally, these distributions are starting to look like a professional quality operating system. One of the main problems, the way I see it, is what I call "marketspace crowding." There are so many distributions, so many flavors that are, when it really boils down to it, just semi-clones of one another with one good tool or one little tweak added or modified. The idea of roll-your-own distribution has left the market saturated with many similar distributions, and even those "in the know" don't know how to properly choose a distribution. The solution should be to make your distribution stand out, and in order to do that, you can take advantage of the opportunity to do some things right.
So, if I had the capital and connections to make a new distribution, I'd take full advantage of the opportunity. The market doesn't need another carbon copy of the current Linux market leaders. It needs something new, something fresh, something that really rocks the Linux community's world. So I'm in charge of my own personal Linux distribution, DistroX, and here's what I'm telling my staff and engineers.
Let's start by delving right into it: let's address some Unix-wide issues, that will make our development unique. The file system is a nightmare for a normal user. This has been covered in exhaustive detail by hundreds of articles, but if I'm going to run my own distribution, I'm going to make a sensible directory structure: /users, /apps, /system, /hardware, /downloads, /logs, /servers, /shared, and more. Then, using symlinks, we're going to recreate the current basic layout of the standard Linux/BSD filesystem to assist developers in porting applications. For example, our system would probably include the following the symlinks:
/home -> /users
/var -> /logs
/var/www -> /system/websites/
/etc/httpd - > /servers/httpd/
/dev/hdc -> /hardware/cdrom/
/mnt -> /hardware/drives/
This will encourage new users to explore their computer, not fear it, as many do. Apple has this right - Mac OS X's file system is human readable, and not intimidating at all. [Note: The above symlinks are just used to illustrate the mimicked filesystem, not final decisions. Please don't comment on the actual links referenced above]
The next idea is fairly controversial, and it comes in two parts: first, our goal is not necessarily to follow LSB guidelines, nor to be compatible with other distributions. Our goal is ease. Dropping legacy support and not being dependant on RPMs will open up the doorway for my engineers to revolutionize Linux software installation. Again, this topic has been discussed in detail in the past, so I won't get into the specifics, but a drag-and-drop software install/uninstall is clearly the preferred method by desktop users. I barely know hown to uninstall software on Linux past "rpm -e program" and on Windows, my control panel used to be filled with a number of programs whose uninstall failed, and in the process, wiped out that single .ini file that directed the uninstall (to get rid of them, registry tweaking was necessary). The second part of this step is to set up an actively developed software repository on the internet. Users aren't stupid, they don't need a hand holding front end, but they do need easy access to programs, and an online facility dedicated solely to my distribution is definitely a plus for me as a potential customer. Incidentally, I don't know why this type of thing isn't more popular with today's large distributions - it would be nice if there was a single site where you could go for install packages specific to your distribution that were guaranteed to work.

The lights go down. The roar from the crowd scales decibel levels.
The heavy, fast-paced guitars and drums for Ronda Rousey's walk-out music — "Bad Reputation" by Joan Jett — fill the arena, then the opening line:
"I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation!"
So true if you know the UFC women's bantamweight champion, who will defend her title against fellow undefeated former Olympic medalist Sara McMann on Saturday at UFC 170 in Las Vegas.
Some wondered how Rousey would react to the boos cascaded upon her after she refused to shake bitter rival Miesha Tate's hand after her third successful title defense at UFC 168 in December.
Rousey shrugged then and smiles now.
"I'm here to entertain. I'm not here to be liked," she said.
She wears the villain role well, even invoking two of boxing's legends to make her point.
"Ali was the heel, he got a lot of boos, and now he's the greatest of all time," said Rousey, who first defeated Tate for the Strikeforce bantamweight title in March 2012. "Tyson, people were calling him an ear-biting rapist, and everybody loves Tyson."
With Rousey, what you see is what you get. Just don't make any assumptions along the way.
Here are some of the biggest misconceptions about Rousey:
Too soon
Rousey will be defending the strap just 56 days after defeating Tate, which will tie a UFC record. However, the record co-holder, former welterweight champion Matt Hughes, lost to Georges St-Pierre in his eight-week turnaround at UFC 65.
But Rousey, who had 10 months between her first two title defenses against Liz Carmouche and Tate, said this is ideal for her, based on research by coach Edmond Tarverdyan.
"Edmond went through all my fights and we realized all my best performances were when I had a very short period of time since the last one," Rousey said. "And so, statistically, this next fight is gonna be one of my best showings."
One and done
Conventional wisdom said all an opponent had to do was get Rousey past the first round. Of course, none of Rousey's seven victories leading up to UFC 168 had gone past the first round — all ending in less than five minutes by armbar submission,
But it made sense — drag her into deeper waters and watch her struggle to swim. Only that didn't work as planned for Tate, who was Rousey's first opponent to make it past the first round. Rousey continued to outstrike and throw Tate in the second round before finishing her early in the third.
"Like I always say, if the rounds go, technique will kick in more because these girls come out swinging. And it's a bit dangerous for the first round. Everything, anything can happen," Tarverdyan said. "But as the rounds go, if it goes to the fifth round, Ronda's chances of stopping people are gonna be way easier, She will knock them out, she will get them in an armbar, she'll slam 'em all day."
Keep it standing
Another tactic some figured would work in the cage against Rousey: In an attempt to avoid the fight going to the ground and staying away from that armbar, stand and trade punches.
Not only did Rousey outstrike Tate 134-28 at UFC 168, but Rousey has landed 10.23 strikes per minute in her career — fifth-best in UFC/Strikeforce history.
"I was kinda bummed they start every round with a birds-eye view because in the third round I really did knock her out on her feet," Rousey said of her rematch with Tate. "And no one will ever give me credit for that because they couldn't see it from that angle.
Tate was tops
Because of their searing dislike for each other, surely Rousey clamping another armbar on Tate had to be the culmination of her career.
Even though dominating her nemesis was memorable, Rousey said the taste of victory is always sweet.
"Every win is satisfying in its own way. I was so excited to get 800 dollars for my first King of the Cage. You have no idea what that did for me," Rousey said of her 25-second victory over Ediane Gomes in her pro debut in March 2011. "That 800 dollars did a lot for me. That kept me from being evicted.
"That is satisfying when you're like, 'I won and I'm not homeless!' That's pretty satisfying. Every single win, I feel like, is equally satisfying in some way."
'TUF' = Terrible
Rousey has not minced words about her experience filming the UFC reality show "The Ultimate Fighter" in June. She has ripped the show for its editing and what she felt were manipulative practices.
But Rousey now realizes that with two of her Team Rousey fighters — Shayna Baszler and Jessamyn Duke — living and training with her, it wasn't all bad.
"I was talking to the girls and we realized, you know what? We got all the long-term benefits from it. We all got each other. We all got the relationships we gained from it," Rousey said. "Yeah, some of the other people could have got the short-term benefits, but I'll take the long-term any day.
"One thing you learn to appreciate as an Olympian is to appreciate delayed gratification. So I really lucked out by acquiring the relationships with them."
Gone Hollywood
That Hollywood came calling for Rousey wasn't a shock. Gina Carano helped blaze the trail, going from women's MMA's first mainstream star to leading roles in major motion pictures.
For Rousey, eight weeks in Bulgaria last summer filming "The Expendables 3" led to a week on set in Atlanta for a role in "Fast & Furious 7."
Now comes news that Rousey will star in the "Entourage" movie and have one of the lead parts in the adaptation of the Brad Thor novel "Athena Project."
But don't think Rousey is remotely close to telling Mr. DeMille she's ready for her close-up.
"I'm a fighter. That's why even anyone in Hollywood is interested in me at all. That's really what I am and all the advice that I've gotten about acting is just don't take it too seriously," Rousey said. "You're just playing. You're really just making the stuff up and we're supposed to be having fun."
Just a pretty face
Sure, there is the beauty factor. Rousey has graced the cover of ESPN the Magazine's "The Body Issue" and Maxim.
Don't think Rousey is getting by on looks alone. Her talent in the Octagon is obvious, but don't sell her short on the big screen. Nothing is being handed to Rousey, who had to audition and read with Sylvester Stallone for her role in the "Expendables" sequel.
"I can tell you the word of mouth has really been really, really positive. Most importantly, the people just really seem to like working with her," said Brad Slater, Rousey's agent with William Morris Endeavor Entertainment. "You hear the greatest things about what she was like on set and how she conducted herself. You don't get those kind of calls all the time.
"They don't call you off every movie to tell you how your client's doing. And I was getting really nice calls unsolicited, It's not like I was checking in like her big brother. The things I've been hearing have been really, really positive.
"I think people are gonna love her on film. I think she's doing a really, really good job of getting people to like her."

Update 5:45 p.m. Media outlets are reporting that the race has been canceled. Do you agree with the decision?
Earlier in the day when Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the race would go on he argued it would add a big economic boost to the city during a time it really needs it. But others argued that the city in its fragile state from storm Sandy couldn't handle thousands of visitors running through the streets.
Rescheduling the race would be hard. The logistics of a marathon are daunting and New York's attracts people from around the world. Many may not be able to reschedule a visit.
The Annapolis-10 miler was canceled last year because of storms and race organizers said it would be too difficult to reschedule.

Yiming's Black and White Prewar Kitchen

5 of 5
What strikes you first about Yiming Wang's renovated kitchen in her pre-war apartment is the black. Black paint? Nope. Floor to ceiling black tile, which makes for one easy-to-clean backsplash! The cabinets, faucet, stainless steel racks, and stovetop are all IKEA, while the black floor tiles were purchased for $3/each at Home Depot.
The dark color works in this case because the giant windows provide plenty of light, while the antique dining table is a perfectly offbeat match to the Saarinen tulip chairs.

U.S. President Barack Obama has described Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan as the world leader in the Middle East with whom he has the closest relationship. But you wouldn't know it, given the recent insults and reprimands various ministers in the Turkish government have hurled at the U.S. Ambassador to Turkey, in addition to the very public backhanded attempt by Turkey to incite Syrian violence towards U.S. ally Israel.
Just a few days after a suicide attack on the U.S. Embassy in Turkey on February 1, the U.S. Ambassador to Turkey, Francis J. Ricciardone, gave a lengthy press briefing which included a few mild rebukes. Ricciardone mentioned Turkey's jailing of non-violent protesters and a lack of transparency regarding charges against a large number of imprisoned former military personnel and academics, as well as a limitation in Turkey's international terrorism law.
The response to those remarks created a hailstorm of very public and very blunt attacks by many high level Turkish officials, all of which amounted to "get your nose out of our domestic business or get out."
Ricciardone, a Fulbright Scholar who is fluent in Turkish, Arabic, French and Italian, was appointed to his current post by President Obama in 2011. The Ambassador has spent many years in various posts in the Middle East, and in 2001 was the Director of the State Department's Coalition Against Terrorism.
In a reference to the dozens of Turkish nationals who were imprisoned after an alleged coup plot was uncovered, Ricciardone said, "You have your military leaders, who were entrusted with the protection of this country behind bars as if they were terrorists."
He also said, "You have non-violent student protesters protesting tuition hikes behind bars. When a legal system produces such results and confuses people like that for terrorists, it makes it hard for American and European courts to match up."
Ricciardone's remarks ran more than a dozen pages long, most of which were complimentary about the host country. The points about which the Turks took greatest umbrage addressed the jailing of hundreds of members of the military in an alleged military coup.
That plot, known as "Sledgehammer," was an alleged secularist military plan dating back to 2003. The suspects, all members of the Turkish military, allegedly planned to create havoc through coordinated acts of violence that included bombings throughout Turkey. The chaos would destabilize the government, thereby paving the way for a coup d'état. The Turkish military has successfully pulled out three coups since 1960.
In response to a journalist's questions at the press event, Ricciardone said:
My point about the justice system though is that you are striving to improve it, your leaders, your ministers, have recognized the flaws in the justice system, among them being lengthy pre-trial detentions, lack of clarity in presenting charges, lack of transparency. Those are things your leaders – not your opposition, not foreign leaders – have spoken about.
But the response has been toxic.
AKP spokesman Huseyin Çelik vehemently censured the U.S. Ambassador for his remarks. Çelik was quoted in Turkish papers as saying on the private broadcasting channel Kanal A, "We are inviting Ricciardone to remain within his boundaries and limits. We are not pleased with [his remarks]; we condemn and denounce them. He should know his place."
Çelik said of Ricciardone, "You are a diplomat; how can you make a judgment on those issues when you don't even know the whole nature of the events and how the system works? Who gives you the right to question [the political and legal system]?"
Deputy Prime Minister Bekir Bozdağ also said Ricciardone should avoid making statements which could be considered an intervention into Turkey's domestic laws. In what sounds very much like a warning, the Deputy Prime Minister said it will be better for both Turkey and the U.S. if the ambassador minds his own business.
"It would be better if Ricciardone minded his own business," Bozdağ said. "Those are statements that do not bode well for his assignment in Turkey."
Another Deputy Prime Minister, Bülent Arınç, said it was "inappropriate" for Ricciardone to have made his comments, explaining on a private broadcasting network SKY Turk, "there is a problem arising from the personality of the esteemed ambassador," but, Arınç claimed, the ambassador has issued an apology letter which means "he is conscious that what he has done is not correct."

'Drug holidays' improve response to key skin cancer drug in mice
Melanoma skin cancers that develop resistance to the drug vemurafenib also become "addicted" to it, fuelling their resistance.
In lab tests, scientists in California and Switzerland showed that removing the drug for a short period of time - rather than giving a continuous dose - caused such vemurafenib-dependent tumours to shrink.
The finding could help improve survival for patients with late-stage melanoma, the most deadly skin cancer, according to research published in Nature.
Professor Mark Middleton, director of Cancer Research UK's Experimental Cancer Medicine Centre at Oxford, said: "We still need to test the idea in the clinic, but these results suggest a way in which this important new treatment might be able to increase the benefit to patients and their families.
"It also offers the possibility of more cost-effective treatment, with fewer side effects, because patients would spend some of the time off vemurafenib."
Vemurafenib, also known as Zelboraf, is one of the first new drugs to be made available to patients with melanoma for over a decade. It works by targeting a faulty protein called BRAF, which is found in around half of all melanomas.
The researchers from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and Novartis Institutes for Biomedical Research found that tumours that become resistant to vemurafenib treatment do so by making more BRAF - the very thing the drug is intended to targeted
They then deduced that drug-resistant tumours might stop growing when they stopped giving vemurafenib.
As predicted, in mice with drug-resistant melanomas no longer treated with vemurafenib the tumours shrank.
Study leader Dr Martin McMahon, from UCSF, said: "Remarkably, intermittent dosing with vemurafenib prolonged the lives of mice with drug-resistant melanoma tumors," said.
The research raises the possibility that so-called "drug holidays" could extend vemurafenib's effectiveness in humans, although clinical trials have yet to be conducted.
Professor Richard Marais, Director of Cancer Research UK's Paterson Institute at the University of Manchester, was part of a Cancer Research UK-funded team that discovered the BRAF faults in melanoma. He described vemurafenib as "an exciting drug and one of the success stories of cancer research".
"It's not a cure for melanoma but can give people valuable extra months," he added.
More than 12,800 people in the UK are diagnosed with melanoma skin cancer every year and around 2,200 die from the disease.
Professor Marais added: "This new study is exciting because it suggests a way to combat the evolution of drug resistance in melanoma patients using the drugs we already have, rather than having to develop new ones. It will be interesting to see if these lab results are mirrored in clinical trials."

March 8, 2003
SAN DIEGO, Calif. - The Santa Clara University women's basketball team overcame a 15-point deficit in the first half to defeat Gonzaga in overtime in the first semifinal of the 2003 West Coast Conference Championship. Down by three points with five seconds remaining in regulation, Kayla Huss hit a three pointer to send the game into overtime and the 60-59 win advanced the Broncos to championship contest for the second straight season.
The Broncos, 20-9 on the season, will play the winner of the Pepperdine/San Diego contest that began immediately after the Broncos' victory.
Santa Clara had five players score in double figures; Kim Butler led with 13 while Kendra Rhea-from nearby Lakeside-added 12. Huss, Quinn Thomas and Megan Nelson each added 10 points. Rhea and Thomas both reached double figures in rebounding, with 11 and 10, respectively.
The Bulldogs were led by Shannon Mathews' 22 points. Ashley Burke added 11 points and a game-high 14 rebounds.
Gonzaga's Triana Allen hit two free throws with five seconds left in regulation to give the Zags a 52-49 advantage. Despite the full-court pressure, Huss dribbled down the right hand side, and while falling out of bounds, heaved a one-handed attempt that was nothing but net.
The bench rushed onto the court, but the Broncos still faced their 17th overtime contest in program history. Now 9-8 in those extra-period games, Santa Clara left Gonzaga still looking for it's first tournament win since 1994.
Mathews hit a three to start the overtime period and pushed the lead to five with two free throws by Burke. Santa Clara reduced the lead to one with points from Nelson and Thomas. Raeanna Jewell hit two free throws to give the Zags a 59-56 advantage. A jumper by Thomas made it a one-point ball game heading into the final minute.
With 39 seconds remaining, Gonzaga turned the ball over on its next possession and Rhea gave Santa Clara the final lead with a jumper she banked in with just 31 seconds remaining. Gonzaga committed another turnover and was forced to foul. The Broncos could not convert from the charity stripe, giving the Bulldogs one more opportunity with 20 seconds remaining. Gonzaga missed its first attempt but had the possession arrow in its favor when a jump ball was called with just 3.3 seconds remaining. The Zags missed two final attempts in the closing seconds.
In total, there were five ties and 14 lead changes in the contest.
Both teams got off to a slow start, but back-to-back threes by Mathews sparked the Bulldogs to a 13-5 lead. Santa Clara missed 11 straight field goals, while going without a basket for 8:12 on the clock, as the Zags built up a 22-7 lead. Nelson stopped the drought with her baseline jumper with 6:40 remaining in the half.
The tides turned, as the Broncos went on a run, responding to Gonzaga's 17-0 run with a 14-0 streak of their own. Santa Clara reduced the deficit to one, 22-21 with a Rhea jumper with less than two minutes to go in the period.
Anne Bickelhaupt scored a short jumper to push the Bulldogs' lead to three, but Rhea responded with another successful post move to keep the Broncos close. Gonzaga missed on its next possession, allowing the Broncos to grab the lead with the final attempt. As the shot clock wound down, Whitney Sutak stepped up for a huge baseline three that gave Santa Clara a 26-24 halftime edge.
A 51-minute campus-wide power outage took place with 13:49 left in the game, with the Broncos ahead 37-34. The teams took 15 minutes to warm-up again before play resumed. The game went back and forth, but a three by Burke gave Gonzaga a 50-44 lead with 1:51 remaining in regulation. Thomas hit a three and Nelson recorded her third block of the game on a key defensive possession. The Broncos couldn't convert and had to foul.
Jewell missed two opportunities at the free throw line, with separate one-and-one situations and the Broncos pulled to within one with a jumper by Huss. Allen hit her free throws before Huss responded again with the three that brought the crowd to its feet.

Marketing Alum Charts Creative Course
Alumna Amy Palmer wrote and published "Hidden Thirst," a science fiction novel.
What began as a hobby for self-described science nerd Amy Palmer, '12 BSB, is now a novel. The marketing and international business alumna began work on science fiction thriller "Hidden Thirst" when her dad conceived the plot more than ten years ago. And after countless revisions, the team has published the story.
Hidden Thirst follows the trials of a team of NASA scientists who make an important discovery while studying a comet. The plot reflects mankind's curiosity about space and thirst for knowledge.
"There's just something about outer space and looking up at the stars that has always made me curious," she says.
Although not a typical endeavor for a business school graduate, Palmer says her Carlson School education enabled her to grow the side project into a book. In addition to co-writing and editing the story, she developed a business plan for the novel, navigated the publishing process, and led the marketing.
"The entrepreneurial spirit is so important to the creative process," she says. "The same tools the Carlson School gave me to run a business propelled us forward as we finished the book."
Palmer cites lessons from her capstone marketing class as helping her form the foundation for the venture. She's applied lessons about using decision making to move a business forward, accounting for the small details inherent in running a business, and guiding marketing on a non-existent budget.
Palmer is a marketing associate at Cárdenas Marketing Network in Chicago.

(CNN) - They say you can buy everything on the Internet.
The latest, uh, must-have appears to be positive pregnancy test results.
Women across the country are selling -- and buying -- them on Craigslist.
One post from Buffalo, New York, sums up the appeal for potential shoppers:
"Wanna get your boyfriend to finally pop the question? Play a trick on Mom, Dad or one of your friends? I really don't care what you use it for."
That particular test was going for the reasonable rate of $25 dollars. The tests in Texas seem to be slightly more expensive, at $30 a pop.
CNN responded to several ads across the country asking for comment, but received no response.
Then again, the sellers probably weren't expecting to have to explain the sale of what basically amounts to a urine sample to a reporter.
"Need a positive pregnancy test? Serious inquiries only!" said one Atlanta ad, begging the question, how many false leads could one person possibly be getting for this offer?
Another ad reassures buyers conscious of name brands, "This will NOT be a dollar store test. Will be either Clearblue First Response or EPT."
Most ads found by CNN ended the same way, with sellers assuring potential customers "It isn't my business what you choose to use it for."
Or maybe you just really don't want to know.

CHAPEL HILL — Anyone who's lost a loved one knows there are countless moments when all you want is another chance to speak to them again. One little girl wanted to reach out to her great-grandma, so she did it with a balloon.
CHAPEL HILL — Anyone who's lost a loved one knows there are countless moments when all you want is another chance to speak to them again. One little girl wanted to reach out to her great-grandma, so she did it with a balloon.
"I really do miss her, because she was my favoritest grandmother ever," said Bella Hosford, of Chapel Hill, TN.
Bella lost her great-grandmother when Minnie Sue Watts died in August 2012.
"The last day I got to see her, it was a really special day to me, because I knew that she was going to go to Heaven," Bella said. "Whenever I hugged her, the last thing she ever said to me was, 'I love you, Bella.'"
A year later, the 8-year-old girl had an idea to say goodbye: a simple note tied to a balloon and sent into the summer sky.
"Tell Mawmaw I love her," the note said.
Months passed, and life moved on.
And on Monday, came a surprise. Bella got a response when a small box appeared in the family's mail.
"Then, when you open it and you see this brown satin envelope, and then you open it up and you see the locket with a balloon, and then it all hit you," said Bella's mother, Tricia Hosford. "We stood at the end of the driveway for probably five, 10 minutes, just crying and embracing and just absorbing the moment."
Whoever did it also sent a note on the back of the one Bella wrote.
"Dearest Bella," Tricia Hosford said, reading from the note. "Mawmaw is always with you. Just close your eyes and you will see her. Love, your guardian angel."
Consider that Bella released the balloon in a very rural part of Marshall County. It could be considered a miracle someone found it at all. But for someone to do what they did?
"I have no idea. No idea," Tricia Hosford said. "It's priceless."
"I thought that it had to be from Mawmaw," Bella said.
A few days later, it still doesn't seem to make sense, and that's OK. Sometimes the best moments in life are the ones you can't quite fully put into words.
"It was a very selfless act, especially at this time of the year, that is worth volumes," Tricia Hosford said.
"If I knew who that person was, I would walk up to them and hug them on their neck and tell them thank you," Bella said.
Bella told us she plans to wear the locket to school every now and again, but not too often. She worries she might lose it, now considering it one of her most prized possessions.

Autism comic book released in central Pa. stores
YORK (AP) — For something as simple as a comic book, Dover resident Dave Kot's work has planted a lot of seeds.
The organization he founded, Autism at Face Value, recently released the first comic to feature an autistic superhero.
When the comic hit store shelves around York on Dec. 24, it sold out in less than a week.
Since then, he said, local middle schools have requested copies to use for social skills courses for students with special needs. Doctor want copies to put in their waiting rooms, he said.
"I am overwhelmed, in a good way," he said. "I could not have dreamt this amount of positive outreach."
Kot writes the script, and the scene he is proudest of comes when the main character, Michael, goes to his middle school for the first time. The experience turns his world — and the comic panel — upside down.
"It forces readers to literally look at somebody with autism differently than they may have expected," he said.
There are four anticipated issues of the comic, and Kot is now working on the script for Issue No. 2, he said.
The organization, which legally changed its name from Michael is a young hero with autism in a comic book by Face Value founder Dave Kot of Dover Township. Face Value Comics to Autism at The nonprofit will also continue Face Value, looks to tackle more research and community than just comics, Kot said. outreach, partnering with other businesses and organizations to reach a wider audience, he said.
The Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders asked Kot to submit a copy of the comic for review, he said.
"It's kind of unique that a comic book would be reviewed by a journal of that professional caliber," he said.
After some restocking, Issue No. 1 is available at three local comic book stores: Comix Connection in West Manchester Township, Planet X Comics in York Township and Comic Store West in Springettsbury Township. Managers said they'll continue to carry future issues.
Jared Wolf, manager of Comix Connection, said his store sold about 60 copies.
"I think people really responded well to it," Wolf said. "I think it achieved what they set out to achieve."
And for Alex Levitsky, manager of Planet X, it's a partnership that will continue.
"We want to do more with them down the road," he said. "They're really nice people with good motivation."

|Rescooped by Dr. Amy Fuller from Mindfulness.com - A Practice
Greenberg provides basic concepts of mindfulness. A mindfulness practice fosters a deeper connection to self and grounds your very being in the present moment. In the Christian tradition centering prayer opens oneself to the presence of God within and deeply into the experience of the sacrament of the present moment. Learning to say 'Yes!' is an invitation to living beyond words, emotions, and thoughts and leading from within.
No need to add.. Read Annette Schmeling's insight. For those that have read Melanie's blog post, it is a good reminder and also a good piece to share with others inquiring about Mindfulness.
Thomas Aquinas said when asked how do you explain the world. Explain the world in terms of God. The follow on question flowed quite naturally: How do you explain God. He said: You explain God in terms of complete and absolute Mystery.
Lee Thayer's next book in process is on Mental Hygiene. All that we address and talk about are human explanations and interpretations. What we speak of as reality is something that we will never know as it is always seen through the eyes of the beholder.
We say: I learn from my experience. What we mean is: I learn from my interpretations of my experience. I realize I may have the same near death experience as you and our interpretations of that experience may be polar opposite.
Mindfulness is a way of being present to yourself and the present moment. It is also a process of becoming your true self.

Everyday | Living Well Everyday | Mr. Darcy
If you are a regular follower or you've read the "About" section of this blog, then you know that I write about Occasions- more specifically, Everyday Occasions.
What does exactly does this mean?
It means not waiting for 'special occasions' to celebrate life. Everyday we have the opportunity to live well.
It means not waiting for the next period in your life to live thoughtfully and purposefully. It means enjoying and recognizing little moments on a daily and sometimes hourly basis.
It means that instead of sleeping in, getting up early for a sunrise walk. Or instead of getting up early, sleeping in and stopping for an extra large latte and scone and not feeling guilty about it.
It means opening a bottle of wine on a weeknight and staying up past your (self-instated) bedtime to chat like you used to when you were dating. It means using real vanilla beans in your morning coffee or in the whipped cream on the apple crostada you whipped up on a Wednesday night.
It means whipping up an apple crostada on a Wednesday night. It means folding your towels just right so they fit in the linen closet neatly.
Sometimes living well takes extra effort.
Sometimes it takes less effort.
It means making the bed not because it will make your room look tidy, but because it will feel good to get into that night.
It means having seasonal flowers planted in pots on your front steps and a wreath on your front door that makes the house look cheery when you come home from the grocery store everyday.
It means putting a single flower on your bedside table (or beside the rocking chair in the nursery) so you can smell it when you wake up.
I believe the art of living well is found in between the big moments- those little opportunities we have to make life special.

ps. your dog is adorable!!! I think having a dog makes life all the more special.
Love your blog and this post...I have always tried to live this way even when others make fun and roll their eyes! My children are high school and college age and have come to learn (and appreciate) the special touches that go into making everyday an occasion! It took me a long time to realize not everyone lives like this...they don't know what they are missing!ReplyDelete
Awww, I love that your dogs name is Mr. Darcy! So cute!ReplyDelete
Hi Jenny,ReplyDelete
Just rediscovered you through my friend Kate at Party Resources. When I started reading, I realized you were the same person my friend Katie Moreland had told me all about when you lived in Kansas. Welcome to the East Coast and I love not only all you're doing....but you're outlook on life.
Sounds like you've settled in well to this side of the country!!
xo Elizabeth
Jenny, I'm a very new follower and I just have to tell you how much this post spoke to me! My husband and I recently moved to a new area that we don't particularly like, and I find myself thinking of the nice things I'll do in the future when we're not living here anymore. I needed this reminder that I can choose to live well right now!ReplyDelete
Just love your blog :)
A lovely read this morning during my break from pottering about on my patio, trimming plants, raking fallen leaves. I'm supposed to be involved in my "self-inflicted" work schedule, but couldn't resist the lovely day. And now I'm especially refreshed reading this and enjoying your lovely photos.ReplyDelete
I recently discovered your blog from Pinterest--and love it! I can't wait to explore the site (I'm absolutely in love with your kitchen organization). I really love this post and need to remind myself of this more often!! Living in the moment is so important.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the inspiration!

In the mood to start your week with a mystery? I hope you've got your deerstalker on and your Sherlock Holmes impression ready, because a mystery is precisely what I've got for you this morning. An unannounced device referred to as the "Xperia Z1s" recently popped up on Sony's official website, complete with a render and tagline similar to the flagship Xperia Z1. XperiaBlog managed to snag a screengrab of the phone before it disappeared, but unfortunately for those of us interested in learning more about the Z1s, the link associated with the device led to a dead end.
The true identity of the Xperia Z1s remains shrouded in a fog for now, but it's been suggested that the device could be a shrunken version of the aforementioned Xperia Z1. The two devices share the same image and tagline in the screenshot above, and it's also worth noting that Sony and Japanese carrier NTT DoCoMo introduced a miniaturized version of the Z1 known as the "Xperia Z1 f" earlier this year. This Xperia Z1s could end up being a variant of the Xperia Z1 f that's headed for the shelves of some international markets. Of course, this is all speculation for now, but hopefully this brief appearance on Sony's website means that the Xperia Z1s's official debut is getting close. Stay tuned.

Eight little squares with rounded corners come together, joined by a solitary M. Each of them is a window into a different world, an open platform capable of housing an infinite number of creations, imaginations and identities. This is the new Moleskine monogram: what can you see?
Designed by Achilli Ghizzardi Associati, creating this flexible graphic symbol was a journey into the many different articulations of creativity. Some of us use just pencil and paper to express ourselves. Some have large supplies of paints, pastels and watercolors, some prefer digital methods. And for others creativity is a roll of 35mm film.
What transpired is that it doesn't stop at paper: it is evident in the choices we make every day, from the bag we use to carry our tools and the appointments in our diaries , to the apps on our phones and the music we listen to. This grid, simultaneously structured and organized whilst retaining an element of fluidity and movement, serves to celebrate all the different formats, media, methods and spaces which allow creativity and individual expression to thrive.
We're not giving too much away at the moment but look out for the monogram showing up as a frame for forthcoming videos on our YouTube channel and in lots more ways coming soon.

Alum Uses International Support to Start E-Commerce Business
Zheng and his roommate Ean developed the concept for Miami Muscle after looking for accurate and affordable muscle-building training.
Baogang Zheng, '12 BSB, came to the United States from a small town in China just over four years ago with limited English proficiency. He was accepted and enrolled at the Carlson School and says the experience he had here transformed his life. Using the skills, entrepreneurship insight, and confidence he built as a student, Zheng now runs Miami Muscle, an e-commerce company that provides muscle building instruction online.
Zheng and his roommate Ean developed the concept for Miami Muscle after looking for accurate and affordable muscle-building training. With no room in their budget for a personal training, the gentlemen started searching for online tutorials however the information was difficult to find. Zheng noted that most videos were not detail oriented so he decided to develop his own online program using advanced animation and credible information from world champion body builder Moji Oluwa.
The company is still in the early stages of development but recently raised over $18,000 through crowdfunding. Miami Muscle selected the crowdfunding website Indigogo to launch their campaign because of its strong international presence. The founders of Miami Muscle discovered an extensive fan base for their product in countries such as Greece, Singapore, and Canada and wanted to be able to utilize those international resources for fundraising.
Miami Muscle also looked internationally for talented contractors. Using online marketplaces, Miami Muscle employed a graphic designer in Romania for its logo while also hiring a company in India for the website design. Zheng says the most exciting part of the business is getting to work with people from all over the world. In the future, Zheng would like to make Miami Muscle even more multi-cultural by creating body building instructional videos in other languages and with instructors from different ethnicities.
Zheng frequently relies on the financial planning skills he built as a finance major at Carlson to strengthen his business. He is also grateful for the business communication class he took because it helps him negotiate contracts and pricing with vendors. The advice Zheng would share with current Carlson School students interested in entrepreneurship is to simply take action. "Look for talented people and test your concept to make the first dollar."

JavierS needed a new print or packaging design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 57 designs submitted by 14 freelance designers.
C Digital Studio
I'm a profesional wedding photographer based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Competition here is hard, there are a lot of wedding photographers from all ranges of qualities and prices.
I moved to this city to study photography. Now, I have a photography diploma and have been shooting weddings for a couple of years. I like giving my clients the best quality possible, in the photography, prints and albums. I want to establish myself as a high end studio in town.
I like keeping things simple, but classy, elegant but with impact. Modern and professional. I like carrying an image that separates me from the amateur. I choose the best suppliers to be able to back my quality up.
I also shoot "InLove" sessions, which are sessions for all sort of couples, boyfriend and girlfriend, engagement, anniversaries... and destination weddings
My final product is usually high end, hand made, italian albums ranging from $800 up. I have samples of those and have sold a couple since I'm starting in this market.
Moving from Mexico and coming to study to Canada made me spend all my savings. So now, I'm starting little by little. As the business grows, I want to develop more materials to support quality.
I'm a very creative guy when it comes to business, and want to become one of the best photographers in North America. I need your help with the marketing.
I want a postcard to be distributed in events.
I want to get brides and brides-to-be attention primarily. I want people that don't care about the money or price first, but about the quality of their final product. I want people that are willing to spend money in order to get quality. Brides that like fancy products.
So, I would say young female high-class consumers
Couples, married or not, for my InLove sessions. People that want to capture the emotion and create a last longing memory with it.
I want to market myself primarily in Edmonton, but eventually in all North America.
I want a promo design that positions C Digital Studio as a high end wedding photography brand. The colours of the studio are red, black and white. I would love red to be the main colour, since red is the colour of love, but if you think of something else that could work I'm open to it, as long as it keeps the studio colours.
Some characteristics:
It can be a postcard or a flyer type of promo. Horizontal is better.
I want something that doesn't have too much text.
I want it to be elegant and modern, but not with flowers, more following the concept of the logo.
I want it clean, but that looks professionally designed
I want it to stand out.
I don't want just a photo with text on top.
I would like something different, elegant but powerful, modern, not square, with movement and flow.
My website is http://www.cdigitalstudio.ca feel free to use any photo from that website. Feel free also to use any of the texts there.
I don't like these:
This doesn't look professionally designed to me:
The files I will require are:
Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)
Thanks a lot!
